EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE


Learning To Kiteboard:

  • You will learn to read and understand wind direction, speed, and how it affects kiteboarding.
  • You will be familiarize with safety procedures and protocols, including emergency signals and equipment use.
  • You will learn how to setup and rig all necessary equipment.
  • We will reference on land lesson setup, as most of our students will be taking their skills to the beach!
  • You will learn how to safely operate and control the kite. This allows us to work on power strokes. A powers stroke uses the kites movement through the wind window to create power.
  • The wind window is an imaginary, three-dimensional area downwind of the kite where the wind propels the kite. Imagine it as a half-sphere centered around you, extending downwind.
  • Before getting on the board, we will practice body dragging in the water to get a feel for controlling the kite while being pulled through the water.
  • Body dragging is essential to retrieve your board or get to safety if needed.
  • A water start in kiteboarding refers to the technique of getting up on the kiteboard from a floating position in the water and transitioning to riding with the kite's power.
  • Riding upwind on a kiteboard is the ability to navigate in a direction against the wind, allowing a kiteboarder to make progress upwind or against the wind's force.
  • This skill is crucial in kiteboarding as it enables riders to control their trajectory, explore different areas on the water, and eventually return to their starting point or desired location.
