In a few words
Discover Surf Foil, the discipline that is revolutionizing watersports by transforming even the smallest ripple into the perfect playground!
Imagine gliding on a surfboard equipped with a foil that slices through the water at depth. The sensation is unique and completely extraordinary: you fly above the surface, free from the chop, in a perpetually glassy (smooth) feeling. All while going twice as fast as with a traditional board.
The true power of surf foiling? Its ultimate versatility. It allows you to exploit spots that are usually unsurfable and tiny conditions that would leave no chance for a traditional surfer. Where others wait for the wave, you're already riding at full speed!
This stay is open to everyone:
• Already a surfer or wing foiler? Your learning will be rapid thanks to your gliding reflexes.
• Complete beginner? Foiling is accessible to you! To maximize your progress, we simply advise you to combine your sessions with towed foiling (to get a feel for the flight) and standard surfing (to perfect your take-off).
Prepare to redefine your vision of the ocean and experience a week of pure adrenaline.

The expert's opinion
Foil surfing is the Holy Grail of gliding: using the surfboard to gain speed, rise and fly above the water on waves that are sometimes completely smooth, with this unique sensation of having absolutely nothing in your hands.
To help you achieve this absolute freedom, our course is tailored to all skill levels, from advanced practitioners to those with some basic knowledge. Ideally, having a foundation in surfing and foiling allows you to immediately enjoy the sensations of flight. However, this course remains perfectly accessible to complete beginners.
Our strength lies in our adaptability. If you're starting from scratch, we'll adjust the program to fill in any gaps: we can transform some surf foil sessions to specifically focus on your chosen discipline (surfing or foiling), or add extra sessions if needed. Our goal is to give you the technical tools so you too can experience the thrill of flight, at your own pace and in complete safety. Whether you're looking to perfect your lines or take your very first flights, we tailor each day to ensure this course is a complete success.

Passionate about outdoor sports, teaching, and travel, I'm Davy, a sports instructor with 30 years of experience in watersports. Founder of a surf school in Agadir, I've been practicing and coaching foil surfing and all foil sports for the past 6 years.
It is out of pure passion for teaching that I developed my own learning method, designed to help you progress safely and with maximum enjoyment. Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to improve your skills, I will have the pleasure of personally guiding you throughout your stay.
Get ready for a unique human and sporting adventure in the region's magnificent spots with the Free Ride Adventure Morocco team. See you soon on the water!
Hello everyone !
I'm Davy and it's a pleasure to welcome you to my Decathlon Partner profile.
My background & expertise:
A sports instructor since childhood, specializing in various outdoor disciplines, I have built up over thirty years of experience fueled by a threefold passion: board sports, nature, and teaching. My journey began with intensive practice of kayaking, surfing, and kitesurfing. It was therefore a natural progression for me to transition to the revolution of foil sports, which I have mastered and taught for the past six years.
My mobile school:
Passionate about travel, it was during my adventures around the globe that the idea of creating a mobile watersports school was born. Now, with over four years of experience, this mobile operation is primarily based at the magnificent spot of Agadir. This allows me to move around according to the conditions to offer you the best possible waters.
My philosophy & commitment:
For me, watersports is a unique way to connect with others. Whether you're taking your first steps in the water or looking to master your first flights over the ocean, I offer personalized and safe guidance. My goal is to give you the tools for independence, step by step, with teaching methods adapted to each individual.
Looking forward to sharing a session and gliding together under the Agadir sun

A typical day at a foil surfing course: freedom, gliding and progression
The alarm rings at the surf camp as the first rays of dawn appear on the horizon. There's nothing like a good breakfast shared among fellow enthusiasts to perfectly kick off this beautiful day. The atmosphere is calm, but the excitement of riding the waves is already palpable.
Once we'd finished our coffees, it was time for the first briefing. Together, we analyzed the wind direction, swell size, and weather conditions to select the perfect spot—the one that would offer the best waves for flying above the water. The choice was made: off we went on an adventure!
Once we arrive, the ritual begins. We start with a warm-up on land to prepare our bodies. Then comes the technical part: setting up the equipment, adjusting the wings, and attaching the mast. Before launching, a final briefing allows everyone to define their objectives for the session.
Then comes the long-awaited moment: everyone gets in the water. Here, the key word is freedom. No pressure, no stressful timing imposed by the clock. We stay at the spot until around noon. The sessions flow smoothly and naturally: free paddling to hone your skills, personalized lessons, quick debriefings on the sand, and moments of rest. Everything blends harmoniously to offer a unique, friendly, and 100% enjoyable experience.

With a heavy heart but a head full of memories, it's already time to pack your bags. You enjoy a final breakfast overlooking the ocean on the hostel's suspended terrace, a chance to reminisce about the best moments and most beautiful sessions of your week of foil surfing.
Depending on your flight schedule, take advantage of your last free moments for a final stroll in Agadir, perhaps to do some last-minute shopping or stock up on local souvenirs. The team will then arrange your return: tourist transport will pick you up directly from the camp and take you comfortably to Agadir-Al Massira Airport. Safe travels home, and see you soon on the water!

The secret to our days: morning skiing and freedom
To guarantee you an exclusive experience, we'll set off at dawn to fully enjoy the spots before the arrival of the traditional schools and the crowds. This is the magical time when the wind is calm and the water offers ideal glassy conditions, perfect for foiling with complete peace of mind. Your afternoons will be entirely free: the ideal time to relax, chill, explore the local culture, or treat yourself to a bonus session depending on your energy level and the day's conditions.
Please note that this program is a guideline only: we may adapt it at any time depending on weather conditions and the group's level to ensure everyone's safety and enjoyment.
