Wing Foiling Lesson
You have two options: a two-hour mini-lesson for $200 or the full lesson for 4-6 hours. It's less than $100 per hour for the full lesson, and you can learn more during the full lesson. The mini-lesson will cover the same amount of knowledge and is designed for people who just want to try out the sport, but aren't ready to commit to a full lesson.
In this lesson, you will learn how to wingsurf first, and then after you can control the wing and the board, you will begin learning how to wing foil. When you learn how to foil, you will learn how to pump the board and the wing to get up on the foil. The lesson takes places in flat water with an experienced instructor.

* Wing foiling requires chest high or deeper water, so lessons can only occur during high tide periods or in locations with chest deep water. Also, wing foiling requires at least 13 knots wind speed in order to get up on the foil. Lastly, when falling off the board, always jump away from the foil.
