Anyone booking the 2 day kite surf lesson, if you can beg, borrow or steal some time with a power kite you will benefit greatly. If you are thinking of purchasing a kite prior to the lesson to practice with we recommend a 2.5-3.5 meter kite on a bar. If you require and info don’t hesitate to get in contact.

1 to 1 is the best way to learn. Whether you have never flown a kite, want to do unhooked manoeuvres or ride a board without foot straps.

2 to 1 is also a great fun way to learn to kite surf. Share kit costs and experiences in the early stages and improve quickly by spotting your own mistakes in your partner as you progress. Whether beginner or advanced we will push you as hard or take you as gently as you want.
