Foiling

Welcome to Windance, where we specialize in all things foiling. If you're looking to up your game and ride the waves like a boss, you've come to the right place.

What is Foiling?

Foiling is the latest craze in water sports, and Windance is the place to go for all your foiling needs. By attaching a hydrofoil to a board, surfers can glide across the water at up to 25 mph speeds. Several types of Foiling include wing foiling, surf foiling, kite foiling, windsurf foiling, wake foiling and SUP foiling. Each is suited to different conditions and skill levels. At Windance, we offer a wide range of foiling gear to suit every type of rider.

Hit The Waves With These Different Foiling Styles

Wing Foiling

The most popular of all foiling types is wing foiling! When a hydrofoil is attached to a wing foil board, the foil generates lift while the wing creates tons of speed. As a result, wingfoilers have the freedom to speed across the water with grace and agility. Wing foiling is incredibly popular because it is a beautiful marriage of windsurfing, kiteboarding, and foiling all in one.

Gear needed: wing foil board, wing, impact vest, foil, leash, helmet
Skill level recommended: beginner-advanced
Suggested places: open water, flat water, lagoons, steady wind

Kite Foiling

You have kite foiling when you attach a hydrofoil to a kiteboard that has some volume. The kite generates speed while the foil creates lift. As a result, kite foilers have the freedom to speed across the water and ride smoothly above the chop. Kite foiling is popular because it is so smooth and serene, even in the roughest conditions.

Gear needed: hydrofoil kiteboard, kite, kite control bar, harness, foil, leash, impact vest, helmet
Skill level recommended: advanced
Suggested places: open water, shallow water, lagoons

Windsurf Foiling

Here's a style that has had some major upgrades lately. The Windsurf foiling sport, also known as wind foiling, is for water sports junkies ready for a new challenge. Windsurf foiling involves using a hydrofoil attached to a windsurf board to harness the power of the wind. The foil lifts the board out of the water, and the rider sails smoothly at extremely high speeds with grace and ease.

Gear needed: hydrofoil windsurf board, sail, foil, boom, harness, impact vest, helmet
Skill level recommended: advanced
Suggested places: open water, shallow water, lagoons

Wake Foiling

Wake foiling is a water sport where you attach a hydrofoil to a wakeboard or a special wake foil board and use the wake generated by a boat to lift off the water surface and glide above it. This allows the rider to perform aerial tricks and maneuvers. Wake foiling is a popular activity among boat enthusiasts, as it can be enjoyed in many different bodies of water, and it can be done behind any type of boat.

Gear needed: wake foil board or hydrofoil wakeboard, foil, boat, life jacket, helmet,
Skill level recommended: intermediate-advanced
Suggested places: open water, flat water, lakes, rivers, and reservoirs with a boat wake.

Surf Foiling

This is one of the most difficult styles of foiling. It involves using a hydrofoil attached to - yes, you guessed it - a surfboard. The foil lifts the board out of the water, propelling the surfer across the water's surface. Riders love this foil style because waves typically too small to surf can be surfed; a foil board is much stiffer, has a more connected feel and generates tons of momentum when pumping. This type of foiling is really meant for advanced surfers, allowing them to experience surfing like never before.

Gear needed: hydrofoil surfboard, foil, leash, fins, surf wax
Skill level recommended: advanced
Suggested places: surf breaks, beach breaks, reef breaks

SUP Foiling

You may know SUP foiling as stand-up paddleboard foiling. SUP foiling is not usually for beginner foilers but is an epic next step for paddleboarders. It combines Foiling and paddleboarding with a hydrofoil attached to a stand-up paddleboard. The foil lifts the board out of the water, and the rider can effortlessly paddle at high speeds and even ride small waves. SUP foiling is an excellent way for those stand-up paddleboarders to add a new thrill in a truly unique way.

Gear needed: hydrofoil stand-up paddleboard, paddle, foil, leash, personal flotation device
Skill level recommended: intermediate to advanced
Suggested places: open water, shallow water, lagoons, rivers, lakes

Regardless of the type of water you're riding, Foiling is a blast! It can add a thrilling new element to your surfing, kiteboarding, windsurfing, or stand-up paddleboarding experience.
