Hello from Liquid Blue Cabarete!
Charles Osterlund here and I hope you enjoyed the video! Wing Foiling Lessons Part 1 and Part 2!
This was a two take complete video on how to get started with Wing Foiling. The video covers a good range of exercises both on land and on water with some theory to help you get started. I would always recommend checking out further videos on the channel as well others channels to get a solid theoretical foundation before practicing especially if by yourself. We always recommend if you have the chance to take lessons to do so as your learning curve will still be steep though it will be quicker and safer.
Remember that lots of practice play a key role when learning this extreme water sport, especially if you are a beginner and new to the foil so do not be discouraged as everyone progresses at their own rate.
I want to give a shout out to Dominican Republic as it is an amazing country to explore and the North Coast is the best spot for all of you willing to wind foil, surf, or kitesurf. We are based in Cabarete which is one of the most complete destinations for vacationing and water sports.
If you are thinking to come down make sure to connect with us and get all the information you need; our contact information is at the end of the description.

In every video I would like to remind everyone that Liquid Blue is more than just a CZcams channel or a brick and mortar store, we're a complete experience. We can help you plan your trip to Cabarete and make sure you make the most of your time here. From finding the perfect spot to ride to hooking you up with the best accommodations, we've got you covered.
What's great about this video is the camera gets right in there, you see everything from the perspective as if you were right there watching him yourself, especially in the water, very close to reality. Great instructions, thanks, now I have a good notion of what to expect.
Tried to make it that way! Next time VR goggles mode!😊
The best explanation ever. Mr Serkan, you are the absolutely best Instructor I've seen on the CZcams. Congratulations.
Thank you Adolfo! Hope you get out there and have some fun.
Thank you for the great explanation! I wish I had you as a teacher when I started to progress faster.
Helps to have a teacher guide you though videos help out a tone if practicing solo!
When searching for contents for wing foil, there are rarely such a good quality videos covering all from a to z. And no silly jokes, which is also a bonus. Thank you for this video. Very helpful tips.
Hey Serkan, glad you got some value from this video! We have thought of some future content to create though waiting on conditions to film! Hope the future videos also deliver value.
Nice video. Tempted to start wingfoiling
Don’t hesitate! Try it out-
Excellent full walkthrough. I'm going to be taking my first lesson in about a month. I feel like it will be very helpful to have already gotten this explanation walking into my first lesson. This way, during the lesson, I can focus on the feel of the kite, the board, and the wind, rather than simply focusing on the instructions. Cheers!
Glad it could help! Many good videos online and it’s always a good idea to watch and listen to some content before doing an activity or while trying to learn/practice further.
Definitely the best of many tutorials I watched on CZcams. Also liked the latest with Ben the beginner ( Wing Foiling Lessons Day 1 LIVE with Ben at Liquid Blue Cabarete & Charles Osterlund!
Yew! Thank you very much. Ben series will continue, he is still learning and only on Day 2.
Great video. Stoked
Get on it Joel!
I spent two hours in the water with an impatient idiot. If only I had someone like this guy explaining it would have been much more fun! Great video - you answered a lot of questions.
Hey William, definetly don't get impatient! It is a "lifestyle sport" that you will always be progressing. The key is to first "show up" - putting the time into getting out there and training. Now of course it helps to have a helping hand though hopefully CZcams videos like this also help out with the progress if you got nobody around. Will be coming out with some more videos in the next weeks just been busy working. Keep it up and let me know where your at in your progression! Got foiling yet?
@@charlesosterlund7303 Thank you for the encouragement! I've managed to foil with an eFoil which was unbelievable. I'm going for a second lesson of wing foiling soon. The last time there just wasn't enough wind and I've also found better schools in the meantime!
@@williamharding1319 Super with the e-foil! I still have yet to try one.... Should get around to it. In regards to winging lessons! Remember it takes time to learn so don't stress over time just get the basics and keep practicing getting feedback from time to time on what can be improved or tried. Regards William!
Thanks a lot for your video.
Hope you enjoyed and it helps in the process!
Nice. Thanks!
Awesome! Thanks a lot!!!
NP! Get out there and have fun :)
Great video. Very instructive. Thanks. I used to windsurf a long time ago, and have only recently seen youtube videos of wingfoiling. It's going to be my new sport!
Give it a shot! Will be super
This video has gone straight into my saved videos for when i get my first wing foil 😁
Hope you get to it sooner rather than later!
Great tutorial, best I've seen. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Much appreciated! Hope you get out there and riding safely-
Great stuff! Keep posting!
Great to know you are watching and practicing! The future is bright on this journey-
great video ! thank you !!
Thank you Fanny :) Hope you manage to get out there on the water on fly!
Just got all my kit.....done it behind a boat. Now for the wing. Great video...will be thinking of all this today.
Get out there and have some fun. Warm and windy regards
I am a gorge beginner winger and learning on youtube. Great video! Charles you are so articulate as an instructor. I am inspired to come to Caberete since I'm looking at fall trips. hope thats a good time of year
Hey Tom! Learning on CZcams is one of the ideal ways to practice before and after a session since there is so much content out there!
When I started 2 years ago +/- I used some of the earlier videos to get the basics and then with time refined and put it all together.
If you have the chance to get some pointers by other rides with more experience or hire a coach/instructor for a few hours you can definetly get lots of progress in that way as well.
If you are planning to come down to Cabarete let us know! We have had various CZcams Viewers visit us here in Cabarete wether just to ride and or learn to ride! Send me an email and we can get in touch - can give some pointers on where to stay/etc...
Fall is a great time especially if you are flexible. Keep an eye on the wind/wave forecast and you can find some great times. Anything above 10-12knots will work and usually we are around 15/18 knots with some moments being 20-25+.
Bottom line is we have conditions for a good time year round! Lots to do both on and off the water.
Warm and windy regards Tom,
CO
excellent video. All the right stuff and none of the silly remarks. Many thanks. Will consider coming over for lessons. (I am in the stage of occasionally getting on the foil) Many thanks for the video
I need to see more videos. Lots mention that the video is quite straight forward with few "silly remarks" here... It is important to try and clearly articulate everything so that someone can understand and apply. In any case much appreciated Doron. If you are already riding then come on down one day for a week or so and ride with us!
Regards,
CO
thank you , very nice lessons
Hope it helped Gustavo :) enjoy the winging
God is everywhere but sleeps in dominican republic my country. DR has it all.
Amen-
This is true-
Well presented wing foil lessons and tips. Great info for new learners. Excellent job! 👏🏽
Thank you Foil Island!
Great. Thanks
Glad you enjoy!
Great video. I want to explore before buying wing and this is video exactly that summarize all dots is it worht it or not. Instruction are clear and well elaborated. Keep going.
Nenad! Glad it helped... If you need any further tips/feedback just let me know- regards!
Awesome video and explanations, thank you so much for taking the time and share you experience ! Great teaching 🤩☀️🌴🌴🌴
Yew! Are you already out there or just learning?
just learning. I am kiter since 2004, and looking forward to starting this new challenge 🙂@@charlesosterlund7303
Thanks, that useful
Glad you got something out of it! Hope to come out with some more updated content soon.
Great video man!!!
Glad you enjoyed! Are you already winging or starting out?
thank you for the lessons...in our gusty location, I found that keeping the wing leash on during the inflation and until deflation minimizes any chances of losing the handwing, and placing the front foot closer to the center of the board helped with the balance
Both valid comments! Also the front foot at center and or center/windward side helps control and balance for sure. / sort of having that angle.
Such a champ! Thank you for this.
Hope it helps Leo
Yew!
Glad it was helpful!
I already watched a lot of video in regard of wingfoil beginner tutorials.
And I have to say this is one of the best all the way till near the end when he's foiling and jibing already, for the rest top for newbies !
Thx.
It is a quick summary of what is to come for most!
I'm almost 61 and ...
Picked up a new toy (second hands) as an early birthday, Christmas, New year, gift to myself.
Each time I see these video on CZcams I really got that feeling of wanting to experience it myself to fly over the water on a foil.
As my previous windsurfing run dates already something like 40y ago ...
As I never did ; wave surfing, wake boarding, kite surfing, snowboarding, ... I know it will be a challenge.
It looks easy and smooth on CZcams but reality seems waaaaay different.
And as I don't like cold weather (and cold water) the days of good weather with wind are limited here on the lake.
But if you wish to do it and don't try it ... you loose and maybe will regret of never tried.
.
Now waiting for good weather conditions to get out for the first time with this setup.
Oh yes, I also got a Cabrinha Cross X2 Wing of 6m

@@NeoVdV well hope you get out there soon and can practice. In the end you will get it an really enjoy it. Super sport-
Looks easy on all these CZcams video but reality check when I see the people struggling here on the lake.
But ... no try, no gain ;-)
@@NeoVdV remember I have 2 years + in wing foiling and a background in watersports. This is just a demo to give a rough idea. We are teaching people here of all walks of life and in the end… anyone can get it if they try. Just a matter of time-
Really very well explained ! Congrats 🤗
Thank you! See you out on the water
I’ve started to practice windsurfing very late last year and I am 54-55 yrs old. I use to practice many sports since I was 5 . Now I will start also with wingfoilling. 🤷♂️
When you’ll have some spare time please scale a proper Equipment for me: I’m 1.80 cm height, 95 kg weight beginner with only 1-2 yrs experience in windsurfing.
@@SoorinSeptimiuCooman get on it! Wingfoiling is a spot I’ve seen done up to 80! You got 35 years more to go :)
@@SoorinSeptimiuCooman not 35 years but 25+ :). In terms of set up your wind will play a factor and I made a general video about wingfoiling equipment it’s on the CZcams page. Though start with a board 130-150L board minimum. Foil around 2000-2400 mast 65-75 and then a wing probably 5-7M depending on wind.
This is a brilliant video, very informative and helpful - thank you
Thank you Ashley! Hope you have fun and stay safe out there. See you on the water-
@@charlesosterlund7303 Thank you Charles. I am a Windsurfer moving into Wing foiling, I now have the board and slowly getting the other components and in the meantime trying to gain more knowledge on how to foil. I have learnt alot from watching the video and can't wait to give it a try - see you on the water
@@ashleytl65 keep me in the loop if you can! Beginning will be tough - though push through. It is worth it.
@@charlesosterlund7303 I will Charles and like you say will persevere. I've subscribed to your channel so look forward to seeing other videos. Thanks again for your help, videos like these are invaluable 👍
@@ashleytl65 thank you :)
Great online lesson 👍👍👍 Thank you so much. I plan to come and see you in person some time in the future. By the way what's the name of your watersport sunglasses ? Greetings from Germany Alfred
Hey Alfred! Super to hear. Let us know when you come down. We have wind essentially year round though our winter time as well summer are ideal. I use Spex Amphibian Eyewear - comfortable and resistant.
Why take wing leash off returning to beach? If ya hit by wave wing might blow away? Very helpful video love the detail thanks
Hey Tobin! Thank you for commenting and watching :). I believe I mention you want to remove the board leash from yourself incase a wave hits you and you let go of board on impact so it doesn't drag you / tangle with you. You can keep the wing leash on and keep wing high on way out to avoid it getting taken by a wave. Generally though if conditions are extreme you must adjust accordingly and also to your spot.
Balz attaches his kite leash loosely to his waist so he can throw his kite around without tangles like you get when you pass your wing from hand to hand behind your back.
Yep! The trend and style will evolve, personally enjoy my wrist though I know that around waist loose has benefits.
Great work, excellent explanations. Whats that cool music from 47:25?
Thank you! Would need to check or you can Shazam. All free music that’s in the video.
Unfortunately Shazam couldn't find it but no need for the efford its not that important
@@Meharizippo will have to check it out and send. Currently hitting the water :O
May I ask about the goggles in the video, the model is it polarised? I like the model. Where to get exactly those?
Morning Janez, hope all is well. Those glasses were called amphibian spexs. The product was great though unfortunately it is discontinued due to serious health issues with the owner who made them himself in USA. They were polarized and floated. You might be able to find online and if you can… buy multiple pairs.
Very good. Thank you.
What is the average cost of owning the whole set ?
Depends on brand and if new/used. I’d say new top brand around 3,500-5,000 uSD all in. If second hand can be 2,000-3,500 all in.
What goggles are you using? For skiing?
Nope. They are for water sports and land use. Amphibian Spex
How do you turn while taxiing on your knees?
Various ways though using your wing as leverage to engage your core while bringing wing over to other side to turn and face other direction is a way to explain it in words…. Or total reset of putting wing down, turning yourself with hands and going other way. Best is first option as it’s efficient.
When you said Get one with the ocean, i felt the fresh salty watter. Thanks for your work mate
Stay Salty Adrian. Always!
お🎉
🎉😂😢😢😢
Cubic centimeters? Math needs work.😂
1x1x1 = “cubed” :)?
Fin area is measured in square centimeters. Volume is cubic. Don’t mean to be picky. Loved your video BTW.
It is good to take note. Occasionally I might mix up some details though good to ensure correctness when on the fly. Let me know which minute to review :)
