Lesson Structure and Content
Beginner Lessons
Pura Vida Mallorca’s beginner wingfoil lessons are designed to introduce you to the basics of this thrilling sport. Lessons start on land, where you'll learn about the equipment, safety protocols, and fundamental techniques. Instructors will guide you through setting up the wing, handling it in various wind conditions, and maintaining balance on the board.
Once you're comfortable with the basics, it’s time to hit the water. Initial water sessions focus on getting used to the foil and learning how to control the wing while floating. These exercises help build confidence and develop essential skills. By the end of the beginner course, you’ll be ready to start foiling above the water.
During the course, we include one lesson with eFoil, which significantly accelerates the learning process. This helps students progress much faster, making a noticeable difference. In a three-day course, one of the lessons is dedicated to the eFoil. This allows students to focus entirely on understanding how the foil works without worrying about the sail. This foundational knowledge can later be applied to wingfoiling, kitefoiling, wakefoiling, and more.
It's important to highlight that students will have radio communication at all times. The radios are built into the helmets, allowing instructors to communicate easily, even when students are at a distance. Additionally, Pura Vida Mallorca has a safety/support boat instructors can closely follow and assist as needed.
