Wing Foiling in London — King George Sailing Club

Wing Surfing/Foiling

Wing Surfing/Foiling is new to King George Sailing Club. Wing Surfing/Foiling has become extremely popular in the last few years, with some equipment becoming more widely available. It provides a new challenge and dimension to those looking for an alternative to Windsurfing.

Wing Surfing/Foiling is currently only permitted between the months of April to September, as mandated by Natural England. This is due to our reservoir being a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). We are continually working hard with Natural England and Thames Water to allow Wing Surfing/Foiling to happen year around.
