Intensive Kitesurfing Course
Learn how to kitesurf in 10 hours!
During this kitesurfing course you will start as a beginner and learn all the important skills you need to become an independent kiteboarder. After the first 5 hours you will start learning how to ride by yourself, independently. (See the Beginner Kitesurfing Course for a description of this). You will then gain enough confidence to start from the shore and come back to the same point. After that you will be on the way to learning your first turn (transition), attempt your first little jump, and try out the more advanced "toe side turn". For this course you do not need any previous experience in water sports but it will help you to advance faster if you have a background in surfing, windsurfing, etc.

The course is split into 4-5 days. Depending on wind conditions and your stamina we can shorten or lengthen the time spent per day.
