Top notch instructor!
I recently had the pleasure of taking a 3-hour 1 to 1 beginner kiteboarding lesson with Matty in Clacton-on-sea and let me tell you, it was an absolute blast!
First off, Matty's teaching style is first class. Unlike my previous experience with another school (4 hours of intro lessons, phew), Matty didn't waste a second covering stuff I already knew. He dove straight into the juicy bits, offering crystal-clear instructions and paying keen attention to my progress.
The course format and pace were spot-on. We covered a ton without feeling rushed or stuck in slow-mo. Matty paid attention to my kite handling skills, providing timely corrections and giving me more freedom as soon as I showed I could handle it. From beach launches to water relaunches, beach strolls to body drags, and a bunch of board starts, we covered the whole shebang, including safety protocols.
One genius move was starting with a 12-meter line and later switching to 20 meters for board starts. Those shorter lines were a game-changer, helping me get really comfortable with the kite by the time we upgraded. And can we talk about the equipment? We got to play with high quality North Kites and bars that looked immaculate and straight from the showroom!
Another cool thing is Matty filmed my progress throughout the lesson. Getting those short videos at the end was not just a fantastic ego boost but also a killer way to show off to friends who couldn't believe I was actually kiteboarding haha.
In conclusion, if you're on the hunt for a kiteboarding instructor who knows their stuff, keeps it fun, and throws in a dash of tech-savvy by capturing your awesome moves on film, Matty's your man!
