Windfoiling at Almanarre in the Var
Windfoiling in Hyères?
Windfoil is an evolution of Windsurfing that involves adding a Foil. This part is key to the sport: it generates vertical lift to raise the board off the water… eventually, it flies above the surface!
The general shape and size of a Foil can vary:
- A large, thick wing with a high angle of attack = High lift, less speed
- A small wing, thinner, low angle, short chord = Fast
- A large, thick wing with long chord = Stable
- A small, thin, curved wing = Maneuverable
With Windfoil, the sensation of gliding is enhanced: more lightness and speed. In Foil mode, the board accelerates strongly even with relatively low wind—guaranteed fun! The activity is accessible to most windsurfers who can already plane with at least the front foot in the straps.
