Wing Surfing - One Day Intro Course -
£125.00
Here at Extreme Element we pride ourselves on being at the cutting edge of extreme sports and we are very pleased to be able to offer you the opportunity to try Wing Surfing. Wing Surfing or Dirt Surfing as it is sometimes called has been developed by a bunch of guys Down Under. You basically take a Dirt Surfer which is a crazy two wheeled skate board type contraption, and a Kitewing which is a kind of hand held sail and hey presto! You now have the means to propel yourself across an array of surfaces at high speed. We knew you'd like it. This is really not like anything you have seen before and great fun, by the end of our one day intro course you will be scouring the internet to find out where you can buy the kit for yourself.
Experience Content
You will start your day with a short safety briefing before being familiarised with the equipment - Dirt Surfer, Kite Wing etc. Then it's time to have some fun! You will learn how to use the Dirt Surfer and practice with it, you will then be introduced to the Kitewing and taught the principles of how it works. Finally, it's a case of merging your Dirt Surfing and Kite Wing skills together to get your first runs going. A great day.
