Beginner Course – Makkum

The beginners course kitesurfing for one to four students on one instructor, with a maximum of 2 people under one kite, is ideal for those who want to get acquainted with the fascinating sport kitesurfing. As with all our courses, you can compose the number of hours in consultation with us. We recommend 2,5 hours per session for all our courses.

The course is divided into two parts. First of all, the short, essential theory part, where we discuss, among other things, the wind window and the material. The safety systems, weather and location will also be part of the short theory.
Then the practical part starts. In this majority of the lesson you will learn how to start, check and piloting the kite in the wind window. Body dragging, relaunch of the kite and the water start with board are also often part of the first lesson practice, although this depends on your level and learning curve.
