The first 2 Hours of kiteboarding are safety land-based lessons. The first half hour and the first day of kiteboarding will consist of safety, setup, and piloting a 2 Line ram air/foil trainer kite. The remainder of the lesson you will fly and learn the safety and setup of the 4 Line inflatable power kite. You will learn everything you need to know about flying a power kite. You will cover the safety and setup of the kite, discuss safe wind directions, learn how to launch and land the kite, learn the hand signals for launching and landing, how to relaunch the kite, and how to self land the kite.
4 Hours
The 3rd and 4th Hours are when you're going to get wet! In this part of the lessons you will be doing your first downwind body drags. When we arrive at the beach you will have the understanding and capability to set up your own gear. From that point we will recap what you previously learned, then we will focus mainly on downwind body drags in all directions; left, right and straight. We will also concentrate on some upwind body dragging. At the end of 4 hours you will finish the lesson with the most important skill as an independent kiteboarder, a real time self rescue.
6 Hours
Now you're ready and you will be introduced to the kiteboard! You will learn how to upwind body drag with the board in both directions. You will be shown how to put the board on your feet, and how to stabalize yourself in the water while wearing the board. We will then practice our first water starts. The main goal of our last lesson is to be able to pull yourself up out of the water and ride for a few seconds and to be able to come to a controlled stop. This lesson will also end with a real time self rescue where the student does the complete self rescue on his/her own.
