Kitesurfing Taster Day
An introduction to the kite surfing - a short familiarisation with the kit then it's off into the water for a full day of fun. The lesson starts off with some kite flying techniques then onto "body-surfing" using the kite for power. Finally all your flying skills are put together with a board for your first kite surfing experience.

About this course
We can't teach you everything there is to do with kitesurfing in a single day - far from it - however if you would like an introduction to the sport this is the best way to do it. Taster days also make great gifts so if you are stuck looking for a present this is probably one of the best!
This day is all about having fun! We even set all of your equipment up for you so you can maximise the time spent playing with the kit in the water.
The day starts with a brief introduction to safety to ensure you know how to release the kite and know the hand signals we use to give you instructions and after that it is straight into the water to start some basic flying.
After you get the hang of piloting the kite we get you body surfing, using the kite to provide power, and then for the last hour or so of the day we get out the boards and show you how to stand up on them, helping you get into position so you can take a short run across the bay.
For more information about the history of kitesurfing go take a look at this page.
The natural progression from this day is either some 1-2-1 tuition or a 3-day beginner's course which will give you the full training and certification required to become a competent kite surfer.
