Hoolan: Kitesurf & Wingfoil

Hoolan

About this app

Hoolan is a FREE GPS and jump tracking app for all your kitesurfing, wingfoiling and windsurfing sessions (and more), with advanced performance statistics tracked on your Garmin watch and in-depth analysis on your phone after your session.

Some apps focus on GPS data, others on jump data - Hoolan does both, in detail. Get the full stats on every aspect of your session including jumps, speeds, distance, runs and transition success, for the complete picture of your performance.

Whatever your level, Hoolan gives you the data you need to follow your progression, stay motivated and keep pushing to improve. Connect with friends, follow their sessions and share the stoke.

Hoolan is completely free with no ads, no selling of your data and genuinely no catches. Every download, review and donation is hugely appreciated and helps us keep building and improving Hoolan for the wind and watersports community.
