Waggas course
Learn the waggas
Our waggas course is aimed at pilots who have already acquired solid experience, are comfortable in the wind and have mastered the inflation phases facing the wing, as well as the practice of the window edge. Participants must be autonomous in the air and in good physical condition.
PRACTICE IN THE FIELD
On the ground, specific exercises adapted to each level will be presented to you. They will give you the opportunity to experiment and discover new methods and techniques.
These exercises will be designed to meet your needs while developing your skills.
The duration of the sessions will vary from 45 minutes to 2 hours, depending on wind conditions.
VIDEO DEBRIEFING
At the end of each session, a personalized video assessment, called “practice analysis” or “feedback”, will be produced. This step is of capital importance, because it will highlight the aspects that you have already integrated and mastered, while identifying those that still require improvement. During this one and a half hour period, additional explanations and technical recommendations will be shared with each of you.
TECHNIQUES taught according to the level of the pilots
- Dynamic window edges (moving on terrain)
- Barefoot (sliding on the feet)
- Flip and get the sand out of your wing
