THE CAMP EXPERIENCE


The Intro into Wave Masterclass is designed for windsurfers who want to transition from lake sailing to the sea or improve their wave riding and jumping in a safe environment. We utilize a 4 days of coaching out of a 5-day window concept, allowing us to choose the best days of the forecast to maximize your improvement on the water.



This masterclass is ideal for those looking to experience wave sailing for the first time or to improve their existing skills in the accessible conditions of El Medano Bay and the harbour wall, which offers safe, side-shore wave riding.

HOW THE WEEK LOOKS



  • DAY 1: We meet at the TWS Center around 10:00 a.m. for a spot introduction, forecast review, and goal setting. This is followed by a short theory lesson and a group sailing session so I can assess everyone's level.
  • DAYS 2 – 5: We aim for two sessions a day (roughly 1.5 to 2 hours each). I will be filming from the beach during at least one session to provide quick debriefings.
  • ANALYSIS: We perform daily video analysis to run through key clips and set goals for the following day.
  • NO WIND POLICY: We focus more on theory and land simulation using the simulator; there is always plenty to learn even on the non-planing days.
