SMU Windsurfing

ABOUT US

For all adrenaline junkies with a passion for thrilling sea sports and high-speed racing, our club is the one for you!

Windsurfing is one of the most popular and dynamic sea sports around the world. The sport encompasses the elements of wind and water, and the versatility of those weather conditions makes for the myriad of experiences that windsurfing can offer. 

Members can look forward to obtaining a Level 1 proficiency card upon completion of our Level 1 Beginners Course, enabling them to rent windsurfing equipment from vendors locally and even abroad. Upon clearing the Level 1 course, our members will then join our Racer team and commence racer training to develop intermediate to advanced level windsurfing skills, and to hone their racing techniques. Throughout both our land and water trainings, members will build up cardiovascular fitness and muscular endurance, while fostering friendships within the windsurfing community in Singapore. We train hard, but we play even harder! 

KEY EVENTS

1. Windsurfing Level 1 Course (6 weeks)
We hold 2 club member recruitments throughout the year: 1st intake (May 2022), 2nd intake (Aug 2022). Clearing the Level 1 course is a pre-requisite to joining our racer team.

2. CCA Exchange
We hold club exchanges with other SSU sports clubs every year. This year during summer, we are holding a fun beach sports-themed exchange at Aloha Sea Sports Centre!

On top of the key events, we participate in monthly passage races, regattas, and inter-tertiary windsurfing competitions every year.

OUR PEOPLE IN ACTION

DO I NEED TO AUDITION TO GET INTO THE CLUB?

No tryouts are required, but you will have to go through a Level 1 Basic Course on Windsurfing with us first before you can join us officially. 

Anyone and everyone with an interest in Windsurfing and a passion for sea sports is welcome to join us!

“My experience in SMU Windsurfing has been nothing less than exciting! More than a CCA, SMU Windsurfing is a family. Being out at sea and riding the waves with your friends is the no. 1 stress reliever at the end of the week. P.S. it’s much cheaper to pick up windsurfing through school, rather than learning privately!”

- Amanda Tan Yan Bin, School of Social Sciences, Year 2

“Joining SMU Windsurfing has given me a really warm and encouraging family to get fit and hone new skills with. Also, I love how I get to be in touch with nature while out at sea, after long hours in front of the computer as an IS major.”

- Wong Qi Ying, School of Computing and Information Systems, Year 3

FAQ

Not necessarily, but it is recommended that you wear contact lenses/spectacles with straps(must), sunblock, rash guard, sunglasses, cap.

We study together and celebrate festive seasons with hotpot and fun games :)

Not a cause for concern. All you need is to be able to swim and we can work on the rest together!

Windsurfing can be an expensive sport, with high end boards and sails costing $15 000. However, by joining SMU Windsurfing, you will have rental costs subsidised by 90%, making it extremely worthwhile to experience a sport you otherwise might not have considered!

We partake in many races in a year, and even beginners in the club have the opportunity to participate in them to hone their racing skills.
