Wingfoiling Coaching Camps
Langebaan, South Africa 23rd - 30th November 2024

We’re stoked to finally launch our first official wingfoil camp, and what better place to start than Langebaan, South Africa? With a massive playground at our disposal, we’ll be making the most of everything from light winds and smooth, flat waters to some windier, choppier conditions—perfect for getting the hang of your foil’s epic efficiency. Get ready for an awesome week of wingfoiling fun!

• Flat water sessions, in the beautiful Langebaan lagoon.
• Consistent steady winds, typically from 15-25 knots
• Early in the season, so free from the crowds
• All this makes it the prefect place to improve your wingfoiling!
• A focus on gybing, tacking, core skills, adapting to new boards/foils and early stages of riding waves
• Coaching only or accommodation option available
• Unique filming  opportunities to maximise your kite foiling development. We can get close to the action to ensure we capture all your mistakes, helping you to better understand how to fix them.
• Max 8 guests to 2 coaches – ensuring you get coaching tailored to your needs.

Coaching Only OR with Accommodation

• Coaching Only – for those already living in Langebaan, you can join us for coaching and social activities, all based from our beach front house.
• Accomodation options avaliable – coaching, social activities and accommodation for the week of the camp. The exact accommodation and price will depend on the number of guests requiring accommodation – let us know if you are interested in this option for more details.
• Coaching runs fro 6 days, from Sunday 24th – Friday 29th November, with group accommodation options from Saturday 23rd – Saturday 30th November.

Wind and Weather

• November is one of our favourite months in Langebaan. The trade winds have started so we’ll have consistent wind all week along with some possible lighter frontal winds from the north (which can give us some fun small waves to play in). And the South African summer holidays haven’t started yet so Langebaan is quiet on the water, giving us loads of space to play.
• We’d expect wind from 15-25 knots each day but don’t be surprised if we get some 10-12 knots days or 25-35 knots! We’ll get plenty of wind but you do need to be prepared for a wide range of conditions if you want to make the most of your trip.
• It’s slightly cooler in November, generally 20-25 degrees but long trousers and a jumper are worth having for the mornings and evenings.
• Wetsuit wise, either a 4:3 or 3:2 full length is the best option, its a little early for a shorty!

Who is this clinic best suited to?

The focus for our wingfoil camps is to ensure that you gain a thorough in-depth understanding of all the manoeuvres and tricks you’re trying to learn. With that in-mind we want to make sure the group is of a similar ability.

Some of the core topics we’ll be working on include:

• Tacks and gybes
• Lightwind and high wind techniques
• Downsizing boards and foils
• Early stages of wave riding

Requirements before joining:

• Must be able to comfortably ride both directions on the foil.
• Able to hold ground in moderate winds.

Note:
This camp is ideal for improving foundational skills and mastering your winging. If you’re looking to focus on advanced freestyle or big wave riding, this camp might not be the best fit for you.

What is included in this price?

• 6 days coaching with Danny and Rob (Sun 24th – Fri 29th Nov 2024).
• Access to the Progression Platform where you’ll find your session plan after the camp along with exclusive videos for the tricks you’ll learn on the camp and into the future
• Progression Camp T-shirt
• Braai & Beers on the first night (thats a BBQ for non-south africans)

What’s not included?

• Flights and transfers – we’d advise anyone flying in specifically for the camp to, at a minimum, arrive on the Sat 23rd Nov and then leave on the Saturday 30th Nov.
• Accommodation – we have various options depending on the number of guests travelling to Langebaan for the camp
• Meals (other than the first night) though we’ll organise some optional group dinners each night of the camp
