Kitesurfing two day lesson East Sussex

What is this activity?

This is an awesome two day kitesurfing course for the complete beginner and includes all the areas you would normally cover on the one day beginner kitesurfing course and a whole lot more:

• Individual set-up of LEI kite
• Controlled downwind, direction, upwind and balance bodydragging
• Introduction to boardstart theory
• Boardstarts in the water
• Continuous riding with constant power delivery from the kite
• Edging the board and controlling the speed
• Upwind riding
• Individual demonstration of deep water safety packdown
• Debrief and hand outs

The second day of the kitesurfing lesson is 100% practical, all the theory and land based work has been completed on the first day so from now on it's all time in the water.

You start with re-enforcing the kite assembly learnt on the first day by setting up a kite each under the guide of our qualified instructors. The centre uses the latest 2010 kites and equipment for maximum safety and usability with thick wetsuits to keep you warm! Once set up and pre flight checked, you move into the water and continue from the first day with the bodydragging techniques. These will take you through to the short mid lesson break. The instructors keep the break short as they are sure you will not want to stop for long as it is now time for the board!

After the break the instructor demonstate how to board start, and then the rest of the kitesurfing lesson will be spent practicing this technique. You will be introducing power into the kite and control of the board for continuous runs as well as learning how to stop throughout the afternoon.

During the kitesurf course you will also demonstrate a deep water emergency packdown procedure to re-enforce what was shown to you on the first day of the kitesurfing lesson.

The course is completed with a debrief, individual suggestions on how to continue the sport and given a handout package.

There is huge amount to cover and learn in the 2 day kitesurfing course, if you are keen to take up and continue the sport we advise the 3 day kitesurf course.
