ABOUT FOIL LABS

Why not come and be part of a new wave of sailors looking to challenge themselves, learn new skills and have an awesome time!

Core sessions of the FOIL-LAB will be focused on body-centric foiling classes. The aim of these first FOIL-LABS is to develop and pilot the content and coaching framework to help inform future delivery of foil class coaching aimed at existing sailors in Australia.
