This course is designed to find out if kiteboarding is for you and get you started the right way. We introduce you to kite set up, the concepts of wind theory and give you the basic flying skills on land. This is a great way to prepare to get on the water, as flying a land based training kite dramatically improves kite skills and confidence with the larger more powerful equipment used in the water.

With Courses almost every Sunday morning at our retail shop (some Thursday), you can get started today!
