In today’s blog we are going to talk about the new fashionable sport, Wing surfing or Wing Foil. At our school in Denia, Alicante, you can get started and have a new way of having fun. One of the necessary accessories to learn this sport is the Wing, which is a wing with a single rib, which is much smaller compared to those of kitesurfing.
When it comes to carrying the material with us, it is very comfortable, since it is inflatable, very light and we keep it in a backpack.
Now we are going to tell you about the first steps to learn windsurfing in Denia.
We start by inflating the Wing with the pump (we have to hook the pump to the wing with the help of a carabiner and thus avoid a scare with the wind while we inflate it).
Once the wing is inflated, we connect it with the leash to the arm and we are ready for the fun. One of the advantages of the Wing is that we do not have the lines and thus we avoid accidents with them when entering the sea.
The Wing has a very useful direct grip in case of being in a dangerous situation to be able to release it quickly. We will practice before entering the water how to handle the wing. For example, unlike kitesurfing, we must take the wing to turn it from the side instead of taking it from the center, since having a smaller size we can handle it better and faster.
It is time to get into the water, we take all the material and start the new experience.
