Get a taste for wing surfing in Brighton! These three-hour taster sessions will get you started in the fun sport of wing surfing (or wing foiling as it is also known). It's all about harnessing the power of the wind and wing - and it's exhilarating!
There's a steep learning curve to wing surfing, but that doesn't mean you should just wing it (see what we did there?) and head out to sea with your foil and board. You need training to be safe out there. The aim of the game is that, by the end of your training, you should be able to control the wing whilst on the board in the water.
Your lesson will take place in and around Hove Lagoon and the sea. All sessions are led by fully-qualified wing foil instructors and all the gear you need is included too.
The teaching comes in two halves. First up, you need to learn how to control the wing. This is done ashore. You will stand on the sand and get used to flying the wing, how it moves and reacts with the wind and the direction it is coming from.
Once you've got that cracked, the second half of your wing surf training takes you out on the water with your board. Once again, you'll be shown how to control the board and learn how it behaves with the wind.
Put the two halves together and towards the end of your lesson, you'll be on the board, with the wing. You'll soon be confident enough to wing surf along for a short distance, to gybe (turn) and surf back to your starting point. And believe us, that's quite an achievement in just a couple of hours!
The rest of your session time will be spent practising and perfectioning what you've learnt on the waters of Hove Lagoon and beyond. We think you'll love learning to wing surf on these taster lessons in Brighton. Buy your lesson vouchers online now.
