Kitesurfing, also known as Kiteboarding, is one of the most popular extreme sport of the new millennium that is making adepts in every corner of the world. With kitesurfing you aren’t reliant on the waves for speed – all you need is wind and we have plenty of it in Bali. We’ll show you how to take control of your kite, ride across the flat water lagoons and head out to the reefs to surf the waves rolling in. Our International Kite Organisation accredited campus in Sanur is where all the kitesurfing courses take place. Prepare yourself with all the essentials for simple freeriding, and with expert guidance you’ll be progressing to freestyle and wave riding kitesurfing in no time.
KITE SURFING LEVEL 1 – KITE CONTROL
First things first, to kitesurf you need to learn how to fly and control your kite. This entry-level course teaches you about setting up all your kite surf equipment and safety procedures, along with invaluable wind window and wind pattern knowledge. You’ll strap into the seat harness and start with a 2-line trainer kite before moving on to a 4-line kite, then finish the course with completing a beach launch.
KITE SURFING LEVEL 2 – WATER CONTROL
With your kite control under wraps, it’s time to get wet. This course is all about getting comfortable in the water with your kite, so before taking a board out we’ll run you through some body dragging skills. You’ll experience moving in the water without a board, turning left and right and also carry out some board recovery drills. Then it’s time to strap a board to your feet and start riding! This section of the course will teach you about water starts, correct board positioning and riding with one hand on the harness.
