SAILING & SUN DOWNERS

Superb Sailing Area

When the wind is in, you’ll get starboard ‘UK’ tack and great fun jumping and wave riding conditions.

You can be Freeride blasting at the top of the bay behind the protected sea wall  or drop downwind to sample some really playful waves

Viana Vibes

Our FeelViana adventure is done in a slightly more relaxed fashion to other clinics. The wind never comes up before lunch time so we try to do other sports.  

Everyone loves this place, it’s one of the most cool, chilled hotels you’ll ever experience. One the best breakfasts you’ll ever have and plenty of taste sensations waiting for!

Come and join us for our next FeelViana Adventure.

WHAT WE COVERED

Freeride Skills

As part of the course, we covered a whole range of skills – Early planing in and out of the straps. Waterstart in the straps, getting out through surf. Keeping upwind on short boards. Fast downwind gybes and survival upwind gybes. Fast Warrior tacks and all components of gybing – all in one location!

Wave Skills

For some it was first time getting out through ‘surf’ (really easy in cross shore winds) But we boosted everyone’s confidence and showed the way to get out through surf, control air time and then select waves to riding with confidence and control. 

Come and join us for our next FeelViana Adventure.

MAKE YOUR MOVES

Whilst this week has more of a multi sport adventure feel to it, we still work on all aspects of your windsurfing.
