Cours / Instructions

During your lessons we will take you through flying a trainer kite to work on your kite skills. We begin with a safety class on the beach to make sure you understand the equipment and the safeties associated with the gear and the sport. We next work with a larger inflatable kite, teaching how to rig a full set of lines, safely launch and land the kite and continue to work on kite control. We further demonstrate and teach how to position your body and the kite to upwind body drag and most importantly go through a complete self rescue on the beach. Next, we transition to the water, starting with body dragging to board skills up to advance riding. All our lessons are customized for our students. Your instructor will follow with a watercraft to assist our water lessons for safety and a faster learning curve. If you are no longer a beginner, we start you from where you last left off.

For advanced lessons we provide Duotone surf boards for those wanting to learn on a directional board. We also use BBtalking, 2 way communication for our water lessons.
