Kitesurfing combines the best elements from surfing, wakeboarding, windsurfing, and paragliding to create a thrilling and exhilarating sport, which explains its immense popularity. If you have always been captivated by the skills of kitesurfers as they glide and leap through the air but thought it would take years to master...think again. Learning to kitesurf has never been more accessible than right here, with this fantastic and comprehensive introduction.
Overview
Our lessons are conducted by International Kitesurfing Organisation (IKO) and British Kite Sports Association (BKSA) approved instructors, whose expertise is unparalleled. They will guide you through setting up a kite, flying it with confidence, controlling its power, and using it to glide across the water—this manoeuvre is known as body dragging. It might sound daunting, but it's tremendous fun!
This is simply the best course available for beginners. Once you’ve experienced the exhilaration of skimming over the water at high speeds, we’re confident you’ll soon be back for your next kitesurfing adventure.
Upon arrival and a warm welcome to the centre, you’ll begin your kitesurfing lesson with the theory. You’ll learn the fundamentals of kite flying (an essential component of kitesurfing) and receive an introduction to all the equipment, including trainer kites, kitesurf kites, and safety procedures. After grasping the basics, you'll progress to flying some power kites, understanding the wind window (the flyable area for the kite), and learning how to execute a safety release.
The real excitement begins when you hit the water and start practising body dragging, where you're propelled over the water by the kite. This is when you'll truly start to appreciate the incredible power these kites generate. The day will conclude with a debrief covering the key points from the day and your progress.
