Also, since it is a sport that you can enjoy offshore, it is Required that you have knowledge about safety and ensure safety. School can provide them all.

Wing foils can seem daunting at first glance, but with the right lessons, it's surprisingly easy to improve. Our lessons are the strongest, taking advantage of the know-how we have cultivated in windsurfing and windfoil for 35 years. And since the flat water surface where the waves do not rise even if the wind blows strongly is the school slope, even beginners can get up and run immediately. In addition, lessons use tools that match the conditions and skills of the day, and sometimes marine jets. Our clubhouse is a private beach with 2 stores on both banks of Lake Biwa. For school and basic practice, you can enjoy surfing and jumping at the West store (Omi Shirahama, Takashima City) and, if you get better, the East store (Shingaihama, Hikone City). Our school can support you for a long time, from beginners to advanced students.

Since the wing foil runs on the wind as a power source, a wind speed of 3 m / s or more is required. Omi Shirahama, which is a school slope, has a lot of northwesterly winds throughout the year. The best times to do this are after 3 o'clock in May-June and the end of August-September, and in October-December and March-April. (From October to April, only members can use it.) It is a big feature that there are no waves in Omi Shirahama when the wind is northwest. Therefore, it is ideal for basic practice and allows you to improve early.
