INDIVIDUAL APPROACH

With our unique teaching method, you learn according to your skill level, knowledge and rhythm. Each student is treated as an individual. The courses are specially taught to give you the best results in the shortest time.

RADIO FOR FAST PROGRESS

We will stay in touch even when you will be able to ride on the water for the first time. Our instructors will be connected with you by walkie-talkie radio. That enables us to give you feedback on your riding while you’re doing it. With years of experience, we discovered that this enables the best and fastest progress.

HIGH-LEVEL EQUIPMENT

We use only the latest kiteboarding equipment that ensures safety and the best experience. We trust North and Duotone kiteboarding brands that have been developing kiteboarding equipment for more than a decade.

EASY TO LEARN CONDITIONS

One of the biggest misconceptions about kitesurfing is that it is difficult to learn. With the right teaching technique and at the right location and conditions a lot of beginners can learn to ride in 2-3 days. 

This sport is suitable for everyone. Adults and children can learn to kitesurf with the right equipment. When taking a kiteboarding lesson it is important to learn in the right conditions, or you are going to waste valuable lessons time on a “harder to learn” experience.

BEGINNER COURSE

We offer one beginner course and we adjust it to your needs. The beginners course takes 8 hours and we complete it in 2-3 days. Our beginner groups are very small, we only have 2-3 participants at a time. To get the best wind conditions we recommend you to stay at the location for at least 4 days.
