So finally I’m pleased to say that we have had success! After many hours of trying my 10 year old son has cracked foiling! I started teaching him over one year ago on a landboard, the wingSUP and finally the foil this summer (check out my other blogs).  What really helped was learning with other […]

Yet another day of 6 to 10knots wind forecast again today – dont sit around waiting for wind this summer get yourself a larger wing.  We are now taking orders for F-one’s highly acclaimed Strike CWC wing, available in 6m2, 7m2 and 8m2. Delivery in May. They will sell out quickly so if you’re thinking

So now that you have progressed to using a small board (a volume below your body weight) but are you finding it difficult to water start?  In my case I started in a 105L board and the moved to a 85L after about 10 months of winging. I weigh around 90kg. The first session on flat water was a nightmare.

I have finally managed to write the next update blog post “in teaching my son to wing surf”! It has taken a while because of poor wind, poor weather and lack of time. However I did manage to enrol him in out local Windsurfing Club and he has now been out five times with them (see their

I had an excellent day wing foiling at Fraserburgh a couple of weeks ago. The sun was shining and summer had arrived. It was blowing 25 knots when I arrived so I rigged up the 4.2m2 F-one strike and tested out the HPS 880 foil from Axis for the first time. The HPS 880 felt

I took my son out for the second session on the wing on Sunday. This time to a smooth tarmac car park at the beach. It was a nice sunny day with about 15 knots of wind – perfect! He was using my carver skateboard to start with but it was just too fast for him on

KIDS AND WING FOILING One of the attractions of wing foiling to me is its relative safety compared to kitesurfing (my other passion!). When I was young my dad was a keen windsurfer and his passion rubbed off on me. He introduced me to windsurfing at the age of 9 years old. Windsurfing is a
