Training and rental of Wing Foil Ukraine!
Kitesurfing and windsurfing are two popular extreme sports that combine elements of surfing and sailing. But there is another type of water sport that is gaining more and more popularity - wing foil (Wing Foil). This is a new sport that combines kite-foiling, surfing and wind-foiling. In this article we will tell you how to learn wing foil.
✅What is wing foil?
Wing foil is a sport that combines surfing, kite foiling and wind foiling. This is a fairly new sport that is just beginning to gain popularity around the world. It involves the use of foil (hydrofoil) and wing (an inflatable sail without a mast), which allow you to glide above the water on the board.
Wing foil requires good body balance and board control. However, if you already have experience in kitesurfing, windsurfing or SUP boarding, then switching to wing foil will be much easier for you.
✅How is wing foil trained?
To start learning to wing foil, we need special equipment: a board, a hydrofoil and a wing.And you will also need to choose the right size board and wing that suits your skills and weight.
When you start learning, you need to choose a board with a volume of about 120-180 liters depending on your weight and skills in the above sports and a wing (wing) with an area of 4.5 to 5.5 meters.
You also need to choose the right size hydrofoil for a start, 2000-2200 cm is suitable and be sure not to forget about safety on the water. For this, you need to wear a life jacket and
a helmet to protect your head.
Step 1: Equipment preparation
Before starting classes, you need to prepare your equipment. Place the hydrofoil on the board, inflate the wing and check all fasteners.And familiarize yourself with the wind conditions. Any sailing sport begins with the study of all the properties of the wind.
Step 2: Land training
Before you go on the water, you need to make sure you know how to properly hold the wing and how to move while riding, so we will practice these skills on land. The first exercises will start with simple movements such as turning and changing direction.
This will allow you to better understand how to control the wing and ride the water.
Step 3: First time on the water
When you learn how to hold the wing on land, we will move to the water and try to use the wing while standing on the board.
In the beginning, we will use a SUP board, since the first steps on the water are best done on it without a hydrofoil.
So you will quickly figure out the control of the wing without the distraction of taking the board off the water.
After a confident movement in both directions, it will be possible to go directly to the hydrofoil board.
What is the advantage of Wing Foil over kitesurfing, kite foiling and windsurfing?
- you do not need a large beach without obstacles to launch a kite;
- stable and strong wind is not needed;
- shallow water is not needed for training;
i.e. in other words, what is bad for the kite is good for the Wing Foil!
Given the current reality in which the seas are not currently available to us, river conditions are absolutely suitable for teaching Wingfoyle.
