The Wingfoil & Wingsurf materials
We have selected the best materials to teach wingssurf and wingfoil. We have opted for inflatable boards. These are inflatable boards from the RRD brand, the boards are produced in such a way that you hardly notice that they are inflatable boards. The advantages of inflatable boards are mainly that they are lightweight and you hurt yourself much less in the event of a fall compared to a hardboard. We have the boards in different sizes:
-
RRD Air Beluga140 litres
-
RRD Air Beluga200 litres
-
RRD Air Beluga235 litres
Because the boards have a lot of buoyancy, it is easier to learn the basics of wing surfing and wing foiling. You are more stable on the board and this gives you more confidence.
In the first lessons we work without Foil, this is wingsurfing. We always use the RRD Airbeluga 200 and 235 for this. Because these boards are equipped with the option to surf without Foil. When we make the step to wing foiling, we have again made conscious choices to learn foiling as familiar and safe as possible.
We use RRD's 2400 Universal SW Foil with a shorter mast of 50 cm. The advantage of starting with a large surface front wing of 2400cm2 is that you get a lot of lift. So it is easier to get on the Foil. The short mast ensures that you get used to the feeling of floating above the water. During all lessons with the Foil, the students wear a helmet. In both the wingsurf and wingfoil lessons, the students wear an orange lycra to be clearly visible on the water.

Choosing the right equipment plays a huge role in your progression.
Difference between wingsurfing & wing foiling
Wingsurfing is the foundation for wingfoiling. The introductory lesson will always be a wingsurfing lesson. Each participant will receive their own inflatable board and wing. Wingsurfing uses a wing, which is an inflatable wing. The wing converts the wind into speed, allowing you to wingsurf across the water. Wingfoiling uses a wingboard with a hydrofoil attached to it. A hydrofoil lifts you completely out of the water, eliminating drag and allowing you to fly across the water! This can be achieved with very little wind, making wingfoiling truly spectacular.
Book easily online and manage your own lessons!
Everyone has a full agenda these days and prefers to manage it themselves. We respond to this by our own online booking system. You schedule your own lessons when it suits you best. If the surf lesson cannot take place due to weather conditions, it will be communicated at least two days in advance. You can then easily move the lesson to another time. We create tailor-made surf lessons, matching your agenda, surfing experience and level. In addition to surf lessons in the Netherlands, you can also book a surf holiday in Italy book !
