As part of the program, there will be a practical kite tuition for five days. The tuition will include basic lesson such as equipment discovery, security system, and procedures, setting up, launch and land, fly control, body drag, first water start, controlled water start, and first ride downwind.
Kite control and safety
On day one, you will learn how to control the kite on the beach and how to use the security systems along with basic weather and safety theory. You will then be ready for the boat session.
Water session
Water sessions will start with body dragging, techniques to launch the kite while in the water, followed by water starts, and progressing to your first rides. The boat will follow you and will always be at visual contact as the instructor supervising your progression. The water sessions allow you to progress fast in a safe environment. You will be able to ride straight ahead without obstacles and enjoy a maximum kiting experience.
Practice makes perfect
There will be more kite launches, water starts, and downwind rides achieving kite and board control optimization, possibly first upwind rides. The session will provide you with a chance to polish and improve all techniques learned in previous sessions under expert supervision.
Lessons are not suited for children under 15 years old.
