On the protected face of Jetty Island, a private wing‑foiling lesson condenses the sport’s steep learning curve into an hour of focused coaching. Certified instructors guide students through on‑land gear setup, safety protocols and wind theory, then progress into shallow water to practice wing control, board handling and gentle taxiing before introducing trim, entry/exit technique and the first steps of lifting onto the foil.

The lesson uses the shallow, protected waters around Jetty Island to make early wing and board drills manageable, letting you focus on balance and wing control before attempting foil lift.

THE TEACHING

This private format means instruction is tailored to your pace: land‑based setup and safety briefings lead directly into water drills and hands‑on adjustments for trim and takeoff technique.

THE GOAL

From taxiing to the first foil flights

The lesson sequence focuses on building the core skills—wing handling, board control and trim—culminating in guided attempts to lift onto the foil and maintain controlled flight.
