What is Wing Foiling ?
Discover Wing Foiling: Fun, Safe, and Accessible
Wing foiling is an exciting wind-powered water sport for all skill levels. Using a lightweight inflatable wing, you harness the wind by holding two handles to control speed and direction. Letting go of the back handle instantly cuts the power, making it safe and easy for beginners and kids.
You’ll stand on a large board. Attached to the board is a mast connected to a hydrofoilwith – a structure that looks like an underwater airplane. As the foil lifts the board above the water, you’ll feel the exhilarating sensation of flying! Unlike kitesurfing, wing foiling can be enjoyed in smaller spots like lakes, rivers, and coastal areas, thanks to its compact and versatile setup.
