Demo Days on the Gorge

Two Saturdays this summer, WAKA and Windance are bringing the folding Glide to the water. Free to ride, no booking — just turn up.

There's only so much a spec sheet can tell you. You can read that the Glide is all-carbon, that it folds in half, that it comes in five sizes — but none of that lands until you've felt it fold down in your hands, carried it to the water's edge, and put it on foil. So this summer we're doing the simplest thing we can think of: bringing the boards to the Gorge and letting you ride.

We're teaming up with our friends at Windance in Hood River for two demo afternoons on the Columbia River — one of the best stretches of reliable wind anywhere in the world. Every size of the Glide will be there, along with the crew to set you up. Bring your own foil and wing or parawing; we've got the boards and leashes. See details below.

Two dates, two spots

Pick whichever Saturday suits you — or come to both. Both run 1–5 PM and both are completely free to ride.

What to bring

We've got the boards and leashes, plus someone to walk you through it. Bring your own foil and wing or parawing, and whatever you'd normally sail in.

Mark the Saturday that suits you and turn up. Want to plan ahead or ask a question? Drop us a line — otherwise we'll see you there.
