There are four methods used to teach winging.
First method is land use on a skateboard and costs $70 per hour all gear included.
Second method is water lesson done with a SUP. Cost for this is $90 per hours gear included.
Third method is on a foil board and is only for competent foilers. Cost is as per kiteboarding prices above. (all gear included)
The fourth is with foil and a foil drive unit and cost $150 per hour all gear included. The benefit of this method is that you can use a smaller wing, which is easier to handle and that there is no walk of shame. When your end up downwind you can just motor back to the start.
