Sustainable training is our philosophy. The 3-day basic course with a total of 10 hours of instruction is designed to teach you all the basics you need to learn kitesurfing safely. On the first day, the training takes place on the beach. Here you will learn what a spot check means, how to set up and take down a kite and the 3-stage safety system. You will then fly a soft kite on the beach. The other two days take place on the water. After the kite control training, the kiteboard is added and the first water start attempts are practised. We teach in the 2-buddy system. This means that two people always share a kite. All the necessary equipment (kite, board, wetsuit, harness) is provided. At the end of the basic course you will of course have the opportunity to obtain your VDWS licence from us.
