Introduction to kitesurfing with a 3 day course

The 3rd day builds your confidence with the sport

Realistically you should achieve IKO level 2

Kitesurfing or Kiteboarding has exploded on to the Extreme Sports scene over the past five years; it takes the best from a range of water sports like surfing, wakeboarding, windsurfing and paragliding. With the introduction of modern equipment and a structured approached to learning which is developed by the International Kitesurfing Organisation (IKO), learning to Kitesurf has never been easier. This three day course is the course for those serious about learning to Kitesurf and wanting to go out and buy their own equipment, investing in the third day is really worth while. By the end of the third day you can realistically expect to be issued with an IKO (International Kiteboarding Organisation) certification card that will enable you to kitesurf and hire kiteboarding equipment all over the world and you may even be attempting your first jumps! Extreme fun guaranteed.

Did the coarse a while back, absolute must if you want to get into kiting as their is a lot to learn, strong enfaces on safety and teaching you how to look after yourself in the water which is so important in kitesurfing. The couple than run the coarse are super friendly and VERY VERY patient. All the kit you use is top notch, money well spent.
