In the afternoon on board a catamaran, you will start by learning your first skills as an apprentice navigator on board your catamaran to become one of the best regatta sailors on the planet. This educational boat allows you to develop fine and technical skills to calmly understand the nautical environment.
Day 3:
Today you will discuss wing dropping to automate safety systems as well as wing takeoff and landing with the associated universal safety signals. To finish the session in style, you will learn how to pilot and put on the board to coordinate the two actions.
For the more experienced, you combine the edges to refine your sensations of glide and wind traction.
In the afternoon you leave for a windsurfing session. Beginners will discover boards specially adapted to discover the activity. Once in the water, the boards allow you to be stable on your supports. You will be surprised by how fast you can shoot at first sight with this very handy equipment. We are far from the difficulties experienced by the old generations of boards.
For the more experienced, you will regain your sensations by alternating tacks and gybes. For the most experts you will benefit from individual advice to do your first jibes.

Day 5:
After starting with a group warm-up and riding a few meters along the beach, you will understand the magic of Waterstart and more precisely the way out of the water on the board using the wing. For the more experienced, you will start jumping and jumping transitions to become the king of tricks.
In the afternoon, your instructor takes you out to ride your windsurf board. Beginners will learn to feel the force of the wind while handling the sail. The aim is to find the right position of the body, the mast and the sail in order to seek a smooth and constant movement. You will learn to change direction thanks to the superb demonstrations of edge transfers from your UCPA instructor.
For the more experienced, you will improve your technique thanks to the individualized advice of your instructor. Today it is the waterstart and beachstart technique on the program.

For this last day of water sports, you will find your catamaran again. Beginners will learn how to position themselves properly to keep the boat balanced. You will discover the trapeze to counter the sales force. Will you put the right balance between optimal strength and salting?
