  • This is a video of my second trip to the wonderful Corralejo in Fuerteventura. This time we went in August for 10 days. Primarily a family holiday but I did get to wing quite a bit locally. The wind was super consistent for the first 7 days with 5-6m winds every day. Waves were not as big compared to my first trip in Easter but there were still some bumps to play around in. I also hired a car and did some exploring in readiness for the next trip!

    Great stuff James, Fuerte is high on my list of places to try for winging. Been many times before I began on the wing, usually stay in Caleta de Fuste. Do you mind me asking were there may other wingers in Corralejo? Where in the town did you launch from? Could you make it over to the island? And did you bring your own gear or hire locally, I'm thinking that's an inflatable board with a High Aspect wing. What do you take in your backpack?
    So many questions, sorry.....
    Did you have suncream on your neck???
    Oh, I'd love to be there now......
    Thanks again, cool video ; )

      It is a great place for winging. There were quite a few wingers out in Correlejo itself. If it was windy enough, people were out. I did hire a car on the second trip and explored a bit and found some other superb spots. Generally, very few out at other spots though. This is just because it is so convenient in town. Sometimes I used the concrete slip by Waikiki bar. Other times I just looked for short walks over the reef and just walked the gear out and then paddled a bit until I was deep enough. People did wing over to lobos. There are some amazing waves over there. It is a long way though and you would want company or a back up plan. I brought my own gear. I have an inflatable foil board just for holidays that works surprisingly well. I then took a 6m,5m and 4m wing. The foil I used the most was the ART 999. Back pack is just the way the 360 camera is mounted. I just took some water with me. I needed sun cream on the whole time. The temperature is great but the sun is strong. Get yourself back there 👍

    Great footage! What foils were you riding? I'm thinking about taking my gear to Fuerteventura in July as well.

      Thanks. It is a great place for winging. I was nearly entirely on the Axis Art 999.
