BKSA Kitesurfing Lesson – 1 Day
This one day lesson gives you a real taste of kitesurfing and covers all the content of the first day of a BKSA two day beginner course You will learn the essentials of kite control and all aspects of safety. Once of the water you’ll be body dragging and experience the amazing thrill of being powered through the water by the kite. By the end of the session you’ll be booking that next day to get you up on the board and riding.
BKSA Kitesurfing Course – 2 Day
Learning to kitesurf is simple if taught correctly. Your instructor starts with showing you how to fly a trainer kite and to control it within the ’wind window’. You then move on to inflatables (the North Rebel or Evo kite) and learn ‘set-up’, launching and landing. Body dragging is the next stage, where you pilot the kite upwind and downwind whilst in the water. It’s your first real taste of the power of the kite and everyone loves the exhilerating sensation. Then you’ll be doing waterstarts and getting up and riding the board. All aspects of safety and self rescue are covered.
BKSA Kitesurfing Course – 3 Day
Your 3-day learn to kitesurf lesson is initially run along exactly the same lines as the two day course. The third day gives you more time to concentrate on getting up and riding the board. With all our courses your BKSA IKO kitesurfing instructor is next to you in the water enabling you to progress rapidly, and help with any technical problems you might be experiencing.
