ADVANCED WINDSURFING COURSES & COACHING
WHY CHOOSE ADVANCED WINDSURFING COACHING?
Spending more time on the water doesn’t always guarantee progression. Experienced windsurfers can reach a point where small technical habits begin to limit speed, consistency and control. Advanced windsurfing coaching and pro windsurfing coaching helps identify those areas and gives you a structured way to improve them.
With over 25 years of coaching experience, Simon Bornhoft has developed the Windwise Skills Training System to make windsurfing technique easier to understand, practise and apply on the water.
Windwise coaching is about more than simply telling you what went wrong. The aim is to help you understand the movements, positioning and techniques behind better windsurfing so you can continue developing long after the coaching session.
Whether you’re refining your gybes, improving blasting control, developing your freeride technique or progressing towards stronger winds and waves, advanced coaching can help you break through a plateau and take your sailing further.
Find the right windsurf course for you:
Beginner -New to windsurfing or returning after a long break. Build solid foundations from the start.

THE WINDWISE APPROACH TO ADVANCED COACHING
Advanced windsurfing coaching isn’t about learning a collection of isolated tricks. Developing as a windsurfer means understanding how your stance, movements, vision, rig control and board control work together.
The Windwise Skills Training System provides a structured approach to that progression. By breaking windsurfing down into understandable and repeatable skills, coaching can help you recognise what’s limiting your sailing and focus your practice where it matters most.
The objective is simple: give you the understanding and technique to become a more confident, capable and independent windsurfer.
