Intro: The intro kitesurfing course is designed for people that have had zero or very little experience with kitesurfing before. It is a mandatory course for anyone new to the sport of kitesurfing as it not only provides practical experience in use of a power kite but also covers essential safety, site reconnaissance, set up and regulations & signals that you need to be practiced in prior to starting this wonderful sport.

Why do this course: To make things more clear here, imagine if you took up sky diving (another awesome activity) ..You would not expect to jump out of the plane straight away, would you ? I assume that you would want to know that you packed your parachute correctly, that the conditions were favourable and that you jumped and deployed at the right altitude and that you understood how to deploy your secondary if needed, right? So the same for kitesurfing. We want you to be fully confident, competent & safe in your abilities before we put you on the water and therefore if you have no prior experience of kitesurfing we highly recommend this course

Timings: This course has a scheduled start time that can be adjusted according to conditions and we may also adjust this if you wish to do the intro course on the same day as the 2 or 3 hour water lesson option....
