WING FOILING

WING FOILING, WING SURFING or just ‘WINGING’ utilises a Foilboard, a Hydrofoil and a hand held inflatable Wing to propel you over the ocean or water way.

There is nothing like the freedom of using the wind to travel at speed over the ocean and to then launch into open swells and waves, release the power of the Wing and then just free-foil using the energy in the ocean.

Because the foil is a fraction of the friction of a planing board in the water, the hydrofoil allows you to get going in marginal wind conditions 8-10 knots, which suits most conditions in Australia.

WING FOILING is a unique combination of FOILING and WIND skills. First you need to learn to FOIL and then apply your Wind Skills from Windsurfing and Kitesurfing or learn these skills separately. This is where we can help.

WING SURFING – GETTING STARTED

WING FOILING or WING SURFING is the ultimate combination the efficiency of the Hydrofoil and a hand held Wing. It is the closest you will ever get to flying across the Ocean! WING FOILING brings together some unique skills. We break these down and teach them separately to speed up the learning process.

We teach WING FOILING in three parts:

1. FOILING behind our boat at Balmoral

2. WING HANDLING on a Sup or Windsurfer

3. FIRST FLIGHT – learning to Wing on a Foilboard 

BREAK IT DOWN

Step 1.  FOILING behind our boat at Balmoral

             Knowing how to foil and maintain flight in bumpy conditions is key to foiling.

              We teach this behind our boat at Balmoral ( 3-4 days a week at 7:15am).

              Narabeen  Lake.

            We can supply the WING and BOARD.

            We need 10-15 knots from the East, West, N.East or S.East.

Step 3. FIRST FOIL FLIGHT – learning to Wing on a Foilboard

            This is when you combine the WING with the FOIL and start flying.
