Wingsurfing Lessons on Maui

Wingsurfing—also called wing foiling or wingboarding—is the newest and most exciting wind-powered sport to emerge on Maui’s shores. At Action Sports Maui, we offer professional wingsurfing lessons for beginners and progressing riders who want to experience the thrill of flying across the ocean using a hand-held wing. Our wingsurfing program is designed to guide students step-by-step, starting with land-based wing control and evolving toward balance, board handling, and foilboard flight.

Learn to Wingsurf in Ideal Maui Conditions

Maui is one of the best places on Earth to learn wingsurfing. With warm water, steady trade winds, and wide sandy beaches like Kanaha Beach Park, it’s the perfect learning environment. Our wingsurfing lessons take place in the mornings when the wind is lighter and easier for beginners. As skills improve, students begin riding in stronger wind conditions, learning to travel upwind, change direction, and eventually foil above the water with confidence and control.

Step-by-Step Wingsurfing Instruction

Each lesson begins with a focus on safety, wind awareness, and land-based wing skills. Students learn how to carry, rig, and handle the wing properly. They’ll practice wing steering and power control on land before entering the water. Once ready, students transition to standing on a stable board—such as a paddleboard or beginner foilboard—where they begin learning how to ride using the wing for propulsion. As they progress, students are introduced to foilboarding, where the board rises above the surface and glides silently over the water.

Experienced Local Instructors

Our wingsurfing instructors are certified professionals with decades of experience in windsurfing, kiteboarding, and foiling. They are trained to teach wingsurfing in a way that is easy to understand, safe, and tailored to each student’s comfort level. Whether you’re a complete beginner or transitioning from another wind sport, our instructors will help you develop the skills you need to ride with confidence.

Private and Progression Course Options

We offer a variety of lesson formats to suit your goals. Private lessons provide one-on-one instruction and rapid progress. Semi-private lessons are ideal for friends or couples learning together. Our multi-day progression courses are perfect for those who want to build a complete wingsurfing foundation—from wing handling to foiling. These longer programs may also incorporate skills from windsurfing and surf-style balance techniques to enhance your water performance.

All Equipment Included

Every wingsurfing lesson includes the necessary gear: a wing, a stable board or foilboard, a helmet, life vest, and pump. We size your equipment to match your body size, wind conditions, and learning stage. Our gear is maintained to the highest safety standards and includes the latest in wingsurfing technology. Lessons are primarily held at Kanaha Beach due to its consistent wind, shallow entry, and safe open space.

Flexible Scheduling and Year-Round Availability

Wingsurfing lessons at Action Sports Maui are available year-round, Monday through Saturday, beginning at 9:00 AM. Morning time slots are best for beginners due to lighter wind. You can book online or contact our office for availability. We also accommodate small groups and families—just let us know what you’re looking for and we’ll help arrange a custom session.
