Wing lessons at Cosy Corner, Torquay – the easiest, safest way to start your wing foil journey.

Wing foiling is one of the fastest growing water sports on the planet, and there's no better way to get started than on a big, stable SUP. In a Wing SUP lesson you'll learn how to read the wind, handle the wing, stand with confidence and sail across the water – the exact skills you'll build on when you step up to the foil.

Heads up: the 2hr Wing Starter package isn't wing foiling (yet!). We keep you on the water's surface on a SUP fitted with a Slingshot sUP WINDer, so you can focus on the wing without the challenge of balancing on a foil.

If you want to experience what it's like to wing foil then we recommend the '4hr Half-Day Immersion' package or the 6hr 'Master Package' (see inclusions below):

Good to know:

• 2-person lessons are with one instructor and one shared wing and board between the two of you, for safety. They're a great way to share the experience with a friend or partner, but if you want to progress fast, a 1-person lesson gets you more time on water and more focused instruction.
• Location: Cosy Corner, Torquay, Victoria
• Equipment: All provided – SUP, Slingshot SUP Winder and wing plus foil kit for those doing 4hr or 6hr classes.
• Bring: A wetsuit and a big smile. We provide helmets, life jackets, sunscreen plus all relevant gear

Your instructor

Lessons are run by a Surfing Australia certified SUP instructor – usually Ben, an experienced SUP surfer and wing foiler who knows exactly what it takes to go from first flap to first flight. You're in good hands with all First Aid and CPR certificates up to date.

What you'll learn

1. Wind & safety on the beach

We start on the sand: how to read wind strength and direction, why we only ride in onshore and light wind conditions, and how to set up and carry your gear safely.

2. Wing handling

Get a feel for the wing on land – how to hold it, how to power it up and how to let the power go. This is the foundation of everything that follows.

3. On the board

Take the wing onto the SUP. You'll start on your knees, catch the wind and feel the board move, then work towards standing up and sailing in both directions.

4. Steering & getting back

Learn to steer with the wing, turn around and make your way back to where you started – key skills before you head out on your own.

5. Exiting the beach

Surprisingly, a lot of accidents happen when entering and exiting the water. Learn how to exit the water safely without damaging your gear or other water users. 

These steps are a general guide only. Everyone progresses at their own pace, and we can't guarantee every step will be reached in a single lesson.

Why start on a Wing SUP?

• Less frustration, more fun. Foiling takes patience. Learning to wing first on a stable SUP means you'll progress faster and spend more time enjoying the ride.
• Safer learning. A big board and a modified fin give you more control and stability while you get to grips with the wing.
• Skills that carry over. Stance, wing control and reading the wind are the same skills you'll use on the foil.
• Use your own wing. Bought a wing or a foil kit and haven't tried it yet? Bring it along and learn on your own gear.

Important info

• Lessons run in light, onshore conditions only – strictly no lessons in offshore winds (no exceptions).
• Lessons may be rescheduled if the weather isn't suitable, for your safety and to make sure you get the most out of your session.
• All equipment is included – just bring a wetsuit to stay warm plus a bottle of water so you don't get dehydrated.
