Kite Surfing Experience Days: Kitesurfing has to be the most thrilling water and wind sport
there is out there.
Sailing across the blue sea at high speeds with
just the wind guiding you gives you a feeling like no other, and
such a rush of adrenaline that it becomes instantly addictive! This
can account for kitesurfing's quick rise in popularity over recent
years - once you give it a go, there's no going back.
Beaches with
flat water, such as Camber Sands, are favoured by kitesurfers
because it's much easier to navigate on still water - so this
course is ideal for new starters.
Whether you want to learn how to
perform big jumps and tricks, surf in the waves, or get carried at
high speeds by the wind, kitesurfing offers all this and much
more.
This 3 day course gives you the chance to master both kite and
board control and become an entirely self-sufficient kitesurfer.
If
you want to learn how to kitesurf as quickly as possible, then this
is the course for you - as well as experiencing different sea and
wind conditions, you will have maximum time in the water and learn
how to achieve water-starts and kitesurfing with control and
confidence.
This three day course will cover all aspects of
kitesurfing, taking you from a complete novice to a safe and
self-assured kitesurfer.

and landing of kites, pre flight checks, water safety,
body-dragging, re-launching from water, water self rescues, load
