Learning Curve
Mastering beginning kiteboarding requires about 20 hour of focused
learning to be able to kite effectively, although a 3 hour class
provides an opportunity to learn all the neccesary skills needed
to move on as an independent student while you may not have achieved
riding the board in your first 3 hours. You will achieve an understanding
of the sport, equipment and skills needed to launch, land, self-land,
self-launch, relaunch and kite on the water involving the board.
Our primary class goals are to coach the students to make good
and safe decisions on the path toward becoming completely self-sufficient
kite surfing with large kites. In the course of the class students
should learn good kite skills, achieve success and make mistakes
that we will learn from in order to move toward larger kites and
more advanced kiting.
Lessons over a longer than 3 hour period are prefered to achieve greater success with the board and kite in a variety of conditions. A 3 day class covering 10 hours or more is most effective to achieve beginner level or to proceed beyond beginner level.
