The Official Test Centre (OTC)

Running a centre in one of Europe's premier windsurfing locations (the Weymouth and Portland National Sailing Academy (WPNSA) - the host of the sailing and windsurfing classes for the 2012 Games) we house all the major windsurfing brands under one roof, making it the only centre in the world that consumers can test and compare the latest products on the market for themselves. As a result, The OTC is in a unique position to support every facet of the sport, from the consumers to the retailers and magazines, and even the brands themselves.

We are confident time spent on the water with us will have a profound impact on youngsters wellbeing.

Today we welcomed Conifers Primary School to The Official Test Centre (OTC) for their first well-being windsurfing session of 2025.

The theme of the day was all about building confidence on the water. With the young people spending time standing on the big floaty windsurfing boards, wobbling and jumping in. Then it was off on the giant SUP for an adventure with snorkels and goggles.

These sessions are all about improving emotional and physical wellbeing.

Thanks to the generous funding from The Chesil Sailing Trust we are able to invite primary schools for life changing wellbeing windsurfing sessions at The OTC.
