Let’s get you riding!
Do you want to know how it feels to get your first independent ride on the water? If you choose this package, you will lay the perfect foundation for your kiteboarding skills.
We’ll begin with a trainer kite on the beach, but quickly move to the water for the real work.
After you have gained good control of the kite and you can do body dragging on both sides, we can grab the board and you can try to ride.
