The place it all began...

The original spot where the board sports phenomena started. The first time you sail Hookipa, launch your kite at kitebeach or feel the ground shaking underneath your feet while gazing at jaws will be an absolutely exceptional moment. 

Well will take you there and make that dream come true!!!

The team of VDWS Pro Trainers will share their experiences, provide you with an intense training program and give you an insight into what Maui has to offer. 

We will visit the Quattro Headquaters in Haiku where Keith Teiboul and Francisco Goya will give us a product presentation and provide us with an insight of the research and development work, taking place on Maui. After that, we will be able to try the new Quattro Prototypes ourselfs on the beaches of Maui.

With a bit of luck we´ll be also meeting up with the Naish Pro Team on Maui. No promises here, but chances are high that Dave Kalama, Kai Lenny or maybe even Robby Naish himslef will be in for a little interview as long as we´re staying on the island.

Professional Coaching

Your personal VDWS Instructor team are here to organise and accompany you on the whole trip. We will take care of everything from where you stay through to what alternative activities and places you want to visit. The aim is to ensure you get the most out of your time in Maui. We will also join you on each of your sessions on the water to not only provide training and guidance to help you perfect your favourite manoeuvres, but also ensure you are safe at all times and give you hints and tips to help you get the most out of each session. What better way to explore the best spots in the world Your sessions will also be filmed with a waterproof camera to help provide you with the best training and development but also so you have a great memento from your trip

Other Activities

Of course, Maui has more to offer than outstanding watersport conditions. 

During our entire stay you will have a rental car at hand to explore the beauty of the island. Together we will hike up the Valley of the Kings, tumble through ancient lava tubes, witness a breathtaking Sunrise on top of Volcano Haleakala and bath under Waterfalls along the street of Hana.  

Stand Up Paddling

For all of you interested in Stand Up Paddling, Dave Kalama, together with Laird Hamilton one of the greatest Big Wave Surfers in the World, will spend some time with us. 

We will visit Jaws together...the biggest wave in the world as Dave shares his experience of the incredible wave with us. 

After that we'll have an SUP introduction followed by a Stand Up Paddle session at Kanaha Beach Park.

 

The Ultimate Surftrip...

Describing our event on Maui for people who haven´t been there with us, is the hardest thing to do. Two weeks on Maui, are kind of two weeks in paradise for every surfer, kiter, windsurfer, stand up paddler, or simply outdoor enthusiast. But how can one possibly describe paradise for anybody who hasn´t been there?

Maui is something you have to experience, see, smell, breath, live. Maui is something everybody has to see at least once!
