If you are interested in giving kitesurfing a go, but are not sure if the sport is definitely for you, then the intro session is an ideal and fun way to experience the activity without having to commit to a full course.  It is not possible, nor safe, to get on a board in such a short space of time but this lesson will give you a taste of what the sport is all about.

During the 2.5 hour session you will be taught the basics of kite flying, get to use the kitesurfing equipment and towards the end of the lesson you will get the choice to either fly the kite while hooked into a harness, or use the kite to pull you through the water – body dragging! *

If you would like any more information or would like to book please do not hesitate to email or telephone.

* Not all students will successfully achieve all the course aims as it is dependant on the individual’s own ability.

The full beginners course is spread over three days and will get you to a level where you are safe to practice on your own, but some people choose to book just the first day of this course and complete the final two days at a later date if they enjoy it. 

On the day you will take your first steps towards gaining your BKSA Kiteboarder card as you complete the most part of level 1 of the BKSA standards. You will be taught the basics of kite flying on foils and LEI kites, kite set up and pack down, launching and landing, kite retrieval and self rescue techniques. By the end of the day you will have grasped a lot of the theory and the basic flying techniques needed for kitesurfing and be ready to continue on to complete day 2 and 3 of the course and get body-dragging and then up and riding*.

Each day is approximately five hours long, four hours tuition and a break for lunch**.  No previous experience is required but any background in powerkiting, wake boarding, windsurfing, sailing or surfing will definitely help you progress further during the course.

The only thing we do recommend is not to have too much of a break before you finish the course so that you do not forget everything and slow the progress of others when you return.
