WING FOIL LESSONS
IN PUERTO RICO
Wing Foiling, Wing Surfing, or Winging is a relatively new sport that uses a board with a hydrofoil and hand held sail to capture the wind for propulsion. The fundamentals of learning how the wing can be a breeze, but like most exciting and thrilling activities it can take some practice and time to get the hang of it. At RAD, our lesson program is designed to build a great foundation for you to start wing foiling on your own time. Though if you need the extra support, we've got you covered with our ALL-STAR Wing Foil Package or our Jet Ski supervised Wing Foil Lesson in flat water!
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING AN WING LESSON?
Our Winging Program Has 4 Steps
1. Wind Theory/ Wind Window
2. Flying drills
3. Staying upwind/ Riding
4. Activating the Foil
We start off with us discussing the wind window and wind theory. Wind theory is the most important concept of learning how wind sports work. One can physically do all the right steps with the hydrofoil board and wing, but if the wind is not captured by the sail properly failure will ensue.
Secondly, we focus on how to fly the wing. It sounds simple enough, but having an understanding of what to do with the wing while in the water can shed hours off of the learning curve.
Thirdly, staying Upwind is a crucial skill for all wind sports. Learning this skill will help you practice safely and independently become a winger. Plus, "The Walk of Shame" or as I like to call it "The Walk of Gains" can get frustrating over time. So learning to stay Upwind, or to reach back to where you starter from, is key to avoid walking constantly when practicing.
Activating the Hydrofoil/ Foil can be very challenging, yet the experience is exhilarating and absolutely worth while! The feeling of flying on top of the water is unlike anything else. Our lesson program teaches our student's how to safely engage and ride on foil. All the while teaching how safely avoid dangerous crashes, "bail before you crash." If more practice with the Foil is needed, RAD offers Foil lessons behind a jetski which can speed up your foil learning curve.

ALL-STAR WING PACKAGE
After years of teaching and building Wing lesson programs I've decided to provide the BEST wing experience on can have. In this package, we build a strong foundation on how to fly and operate the wing then maximize the opportunities for foil flight.
This is (2) lessons broken up into 2 hour sessions (4 Hours). The first session is taught on and from the beach and the student gets an opportunity to foil once the proper techniques are explained. The second lesson is done completely from the water with jetski support and in better conditions. This type of program can take weeks or months off of a normal learning curve of the sport and is the absolute best way to learn how to wing foil.
