BKSA KITESURFING LESSON 2 DAY COURSE
Building on what we learnt on day 1 and progressing water based techniques further.
Kitesurfing has been worlds fast growing extreme sport for some time now and is taking over beaches everywhere.
By harnessing the wind in a large control-able kite, using the power to pull you along the water on any board you like, you have absolute freedom to ride how you like.
It's fast and surprisingly easy to learn. After only a couple of days of lessons you will be completely independent practising alone.
We run sessions 7 days a week, introducing people to the sport, taught by a team of instructors involved in the worldwide kite industry. With over 30 years experience between us, we pride our self on delivering the very best course in the country. We do things differently because we want to make our students independent kiteboarders, so afterwards we can ride together at the beach.
Our lessons take place in Poole harbour, Dorset. It's the centre of the UK kite industry and where the sport first hit Britain. With an ideal flat and shallow harbour, working in most wind directions, it's easy and safe, making it the perfect place for us to teach you.
2 Day Course
This is our bench mark learn to kite course, over 2 full days running from 10:00 - 16:00 we'll take you through everything you need to know to Kite independently. Day 1 is all about familiarisation and understanding to get you clued up. Starting in the classroom we'll chat through important theory you need to know. after which we'll be heading out to put a kite in your hands. After learning basic controls and power delivery you'll be loving the session of body dragging! On day 2 of the course we'll be focusing on practical independence, using more power and having learnt to control your drag as desired, you'll be putting your kite skills into practice on the board!
