Kitefoil Training
You are an experimented kiteboarder but eager of new experiences? So why not give Kitefoil a try rather than wonder if it’s as fun as it looks. The feeling on glide, the support and the sensations in Kitefoil are very different compared to traditional kiteboarding. So stay aware, this new trendy sport will become a real flying addiction!
What is Foil or Hydrofoil? The foiler stands on the board and is propelled by his kite. As the speed increases and thanks to its fins, the foil rises above the water. This transfer of lift reduces friction as well as the power required for speed. The kiter controls the elevation by applying pressure to the board across his feet.
Highlights.
This sport is for kitesurfers who know already how to ride autonomously and thus having a very good control of the kite, knowing how to ride in strapless is an asset but not necessary.
- Flying 70cm off the water
- Able to kite up from 8knots
