Wing foil is currently the hype of the moment, a perfect combination of different water sport styles.
Wing foil redefines gravity with its endless glides, allowing riders to ride in very light wind scenarios. One significant advantage is the independence it provides; in case the conditions are getting to sketchy, riders can easily swim back to shore.
The essence of the sport of wing foil is in a wing sail attached to your wrist, without any bar or lines, and board with a big fin (foil). Once that you master how to get on the board, working on your balance and how to control the wing for a steady ride, you will learn how to pump with your body in order to lift the foil up and take an effortless session, no matter the wind speed.
Mostly, we are blessed by Mistral and Scirocco winds, which allow us to run our wing foil course in Punta Trettu, around Sant’Antioco island, Is Solinas and Porto Pino, where you can find sandy beaches and turquoise water.
Wing Foil Course Punta Trettu and South-west Sardinia
The spots for wing lessons, according with the wind directions, are Punta Trettu and the other spots in the South West Sardinia which guarantee safe and easy learning thanks good water conditions and constant wind.
The wing foil course is usually split in two hours per days and six hours is the average time for our students to do water start and the first glides. The wing course is structured in a way to encourage constant learning during lessons. By dividing it in blocks of two hours you will have the right time to learn all the skills while staying fresh and concentrated.
The time required depends on the student’s knowledge, attitude, age and wind conditions. Some are able to stand up on the board and ride straight away, others may need to practice riding a little longer before to glide.
