teaching programs
Our
instructors are here to make your time with us the most
rewarding possible. The team are trained to the high
standards of the BKSA (British Kitesurfing Association) giving
you the confidence needed.
We spread the course out over 3 day's which ensures that both the practical and theory aspects are covered.
Using the latest radio helmets from Headzone we've found that our students are learning faster than other schools and are generally getting up on a board by the 3rd day.
If after completing the course you still want to practice we can offer supervised hire of our equipment. Just ask....
Wind guarantee
I know you will find this hard to believe but we can't promise wind every day. We are lucky and do benefit from the island creating it's own wind during the summer months (April - Oct) called a sea Breeze and this generally kicks in around lunch and lasts sometimes until dusk on average 5 days a week.
The course tends to run from midday onwards so we can get the small amount of theory completed (yes it is important) so we can hit the water and get the best wind.
While we will try our best to pick the windy day's please understand we have no control over it and can only go by current forecasts so last minute changes my happen (sorry). We can teach in wind as low as force 2-3 if the god's are against us we can arrange for some other water sports to take it's place.
