Windsurfing Improver Weekend

Duration: 2 Days

Course Aim: RYA Intermediate Non-Planing or Planing, depending upon level of ability

Minimum Standard: Ability to sail comfortably in all directions and tack and gybe a board. If you’ve only been windsurfing a few times you should join our Start Windsurfing course instead.

This two-day intermediate windsurfing course follows the RYA Intermediate (non-planing/planning) syllabus and introduces you to the RYA Fastfwd coaching technique, helping you to fine tune your basic skills and make your windsurfing faster and more fluid.

The Fastfwd formula uses five key elements; Vision, Trim, Balance, Power and Stance. During the weekend you will be coached using this formula to develop early planning techniques, improve harness work and getting in the straps and develop a greater awareness of what’s happening to you and your equipment whilst you’re out on the water.

For those who are already familiar with the Fastfwd coaching method we will use it to build upon your existing skills and improve your planing technique and stance leading towards improved transitions in your tacks and gybes
