FAQ
Is it hard to learn wingfoil in Boracay?
Learning wing foiling can be challenging initially, but like any watersport, practice and persistence will improve your skills over time. It is necessary to take lessons, practice on calm waters, and be patient with the learning process. We decided to offer wingfoil lessons in Boracay because we are convinced it is a perfect progression spot!
Starting in a knee to waist deep water will help you save energy hopping back on the board. The reef protects the lagoon from heavy rolling waves, which would otherwise be challenging with balancing on the board.
Is it not too tiring to constantly hold the wing with your arms up?
Despite how it looks, you are not lifting the 2 to 3.5kg wing with your arms. The wind is lifting it for you. You then work more on a control pull from your upper back. If you’re not used to any upper body exercises, you will take a rest from time to time. Good thing, you will have plenty of rest during your beginning phases allowing to strengthen your upper body gradually.
How long does it take to learn it?
Our lessons are designed to open the learning door of wing foiling and keep it open.
Within the first 30 minutes, you’ll learn the basics of the wind aspects and how to maneuver your wing on the land.
Within the first 2 to 4 hours, you will practice how to control the wing as you also balance on a board without foil.
After that, you should be ready to attempt your first flights on the foil.
After around 8 to 10 hours on average, you are able to take off on the foil on both sides and ride over 100 meters.
