DOWNWIND FOILING CAMP IN BRAZIL (25 Oct-2 Nov 2025)

DOWNWIND CAMP IN BRAZIL – JERICOACOARA (25 Oct- 2 Nov)

Join the Journey. Ride the Bumps. Discover the Glide.

Jericoacoara in Brazil is the dream of many during the second half of the year as it offers a 100% guarantee of wind and a tropical climate with warm water. This spot offers the ideal conditions to practice all watersports and the organization and logistics are ideal to spend your days of sport.

What do we offer?

Downwind foil camp – intermediate and expert level

Downwind foiling is the fastest growing trend at the moment. The feeling of riding the waves and being carried away by the energy of the sea is incredible, there is nothing more exciting and liberating. However, downwinders are more challenging than they seem and require specific skills and knowledge, as well as logistical organization, to be enjoyable. Learning requires a step-by-step approach.

Learning involves a specific educational path, which passes through the ability of “pumping”, the ability to connect waves and the ideal selection of equipment. During the camp, specific training sessions on the spot will alternate with real “downwind runs” of 5-7 km with the support of shuttle services for the return to the starting point.

Based on the rider’s level, the ideal equipment (boards, wings, foils, parawings, paddles) will be selected to support the best learning path.

One thing is certain, downwind is a group discipline and you can combine different levels and sharing the experience is what will remain in your memory and that you will want to repeat many more times.

(If you want to be accompanied by family members or friends who are still not familiar with watersports we organize private or group beginner lessons for both windsurf and wing foiling).

How do we coach?

The level required to participate in the camp is to have full confidence with wingfoil navigation in medium/strong wind. The downwind sessions will be done in a group but the “coaching” is done on an individual level based on the rider’s level and the “set up” chosen by the rider to carry out his session (wing, parawing or paddle).

Your coach Matteo Guazzoni has been passionate about foiling for several years. He has experience as a team manager and marketing manager and currently develops foiling products at RRD. Former European windsurfing champion, Matteo has actively participated in world wingfoil competitions and regularly practices downwind foiling on Lake Garda. His experience extends to sup foiling, Foil Drive, pumping in flat water.

Accomodation and partners:

Our home will be the Pousada do Maurìcio, a welcoming and quiet oasis where you can relax and experience the Brazilian atmosphere in complete tranquility. The rooms are comfortable and a hearty breakfast is offered to best face the day in the water. The Pousada offers a swimming pool where you can regenerate and common areas where we carry out our educational sessions. We are also happy to collaborate with Jeri250 Water Sports Center, a reference point for windsurfing and wingfoiling in Jericoacoara that combines passion, professionalism and local spirit to offer a unique experience to all lovers of water sports.
