Make the most of the Morbihan's natural surroundings and discover longboarding in Etel with Aurélien, your sports instructor with a passion for board sports!

Are you passing through Morbihan after visiting the Quiberon peninsula? Why not take advantage of the magnificent setting of Etel, a small town with a peaceful atmosphere and picturesque seascapes? This region is renowned for its water sports but today we'd like to invite you to discover a different kind of gliding sport: longboarding! By taking part in an introductory longboard course in Etel, you're giving yourself a unique opportunity to discover this thrilling sport with a passionate instructor who'll put you at your ease!

Longboarding is a variant of skateboarding that uses a longer, wider board, generally between 90 and 150 cm in length. This board offers a smoother, more stable gliding sensation, making it ideal for long distances, downhill runs or simply for getting around with ease. Thanks to the constructive advice of your professional instructor, you'll soon be familiar with all the basics of this discipline.

During your introduction to longboarding on the banks of the Ria d'Etel, the first objective will be to get you comfortable on a moving board and explain the basics of the activity. You'll learn about propulsion, stopping, turns and braking and propulsion techniques. Aurélien will then show you how to feel more comfortable on the board so that you can become more autonomous and choose from the different longboard disciplines: Longboard Dancing, Surfskate, Downhill, Pumptrack, Ramp, Bowl, etc. There are many options that will take you further with this sport!
