Dates of course

Whilst we can't teach you how to walk on water we can improve your windsurfing.

We now have a number of intermediate, able to teach up to carve gybing We have been upgraded to be able to issue Intermediate (or Fast Forward) certificates, . The teaching uses the fast forward method (see RYA website)

We have a funboard simulator which allows us to work through technique on land and provide a feel of what it s like on the water in controlled conditions.

We also have some lightweight boards and rigs up to 7 sq m.

To idea is to get you enjoying windsurfing to the full - after that it is up to you where you take it.
