STEP 1: THE LAUNCH (2 HOURS - $150)

How to relaunch your kite? What about self rescue? Do you know what to expect in a Jet-Ski assisted lesson. All of this, and much more will be covered in Session I: You will handle, rig, and fly a 4 or 5 line inflatable kite of your choice while covering all above points and more.

Once you have get kite and body control, and have power-body dragged, and up-wind body dragged, it’s time for the board. If you have done your practice, and have good kite control going into the water, board rides are just minutes into your water session.
