Description
Due to the weather, we will be cancelling the class tonight. Please keep your eye out for when it gets rescheduled!
In the first of this 2-series class, we'll cover the basic theory of foiling in the classroom and go over rigging/derigging the UFO. Please watch the videos below if you can.
We will schedule the second class for a day with sufficient wind conditions for foiling and try to get everyone on the water with an instructor observing.
Students must have a Provisional rating minimum to attend this class, and must have additional experience with the tiller extension to attend the second class. Experience with Lasers or taking a Laser class first is recommended.
