Private vs group

Why private wingfoil lessons?

Private wingfoil lessons mean every session is built entirely around you. Your instructor adapts to your progress in real time — no distractions, no waiting. It's the fastest way to go from first wing touch to flying on the foil. Group is a good fit if you want to share the experience with a friend, and it is a saving on the private rate.

FAQ

Private lesson questions

Short answers here. More on kitesurfing and wing foiling is on our FAQ page.

Which private course should I book?

If you just want to try it, start with Day 1 (2 hours, R2,300). Day 2 (4 hours, R4,400) is for beginners aiming for their first foil flight. Day 3 (6 hours, R6,500) is our most comprehensive beginner package, for those committed to riding independently. Ridden before? Book a Refresher Session (2 hours, R1,900) or the Extended Refresher (3 hours, R2,500).

What happens if there's no wind?

If conditions aren't suitable, we don't teach. We'll talk to you and recommend the best option: reschedule, a voucher or a refund. Flexibility is our priority because most of our clients are international.

What's the cancellation policy?

When wind conditions are good, bookings cancelled within 24 hours of the lesson are non-refundable. With 48 hours' notice, we can give you a full refund.

What language are lessons in? Do you teach children?

Most lessons are taught in English or German; we have a German-speaking instructor on the team. We teach children from the age of 10.

Can I book and pay from overseas?

Yes. Book online and pay in full or a 50% deposit. Payments are taken in South African rand.

Where do we meet?

Your booking confirmation tells you exactly where to go. We're based at 1 St Croix Close, Langebaan, Western Cape, 7357, about 100–120 km from Cape Town.
