DETAILS ABOUT THE BEGINNER COURSES

Requirement

Good swimming skills—you’ll learn everything else at our kitesurfing school. Please bring sturdy shoes, athletic clothing (appropriate for the weather), sunscreen, a hat, swimwear, a towel, and sunglasses.

Onshore Training Session

Each course begins with a land-based training session, where you'll use a training mat to learn the basics of kite control. In your next session, you'll already be steering a tube kite in the water.

Water Training

In your first two water training sessions, you'll learn how to control the kite, how to move safely in the water (bodydrag), and you'll do your first exercises on the kiteboard.

Theory Module

A comprehensive theory session will teach you about the potential dangers of kitesurfing and give you a better understanding of weather conditions and equipment.

Kiteboard and Kite Control

The subsequent water sessions are designed to practice using the kiteboard in conjunction with kite control.

Handling the Kite

You'll practice handling the kite safely in unusual situations, including self-rescue, so that you can move safely around the water even without a kite instructor.

Wind & Weather

The exact course schedule depends on wind and weather conditions. Our wind guarantee applies here: You’ll receive a voucher for the remaining course elements.
