How do I get started with kiteboarding?
• Master flying a small two line foil trainer kite on land. The best way to get started with kiteboarding at Boardsports School is to come to one of our trainer kite clinics and learn how to fly a bar controlled 2 line ram air foil kite (as opposed to a stunt kite with handles, or a toy kite you flew when you were little). • Take a beginner land and water lesson from a certified kite school. Kiteboarding is an extreme sport that is obtrusive and potentially dangerous to you and others around you. Safety considerations are extremely important, and taking a lesson with a certified kite school is a must. Not only will you be safer, you also won’t jeopardize the safety of others. • Buy gear. Once you have completed beginner lessons and know how to waterstart onto a kiteboard, you are ready to get gear and practice on your own. All students taking our 2 part land and water lesson receive a $200 discount on a complete kiteboard package. See our gear page for more details. Kiteboarding is 80%
