Kitesurfing and Kiteboarding are called Extreme Sports for a reason. The latest technology and safety systems are great but it only works if you know how to use them correctly. With this in mind, we offer beginner packages including lessons, so ask our qualified and experienced team to put a package together to suit your needs.

Land Kiteboarding is a growing sport and like kitesurfing it requires excellent kite flying skills. Once you have mastered your kite, you can use it in the ocean, lakes or on the beach or open areas with land boards specifically designed for land kiting. Ask our friendly staff about our range of land boards.

AKSA (Australian Kitesurfing Association) Safe Kiting Guidelines

Kitesurfing is relatively easy to practise safely with a little forethought and common sense. Ultimately we are responsible for minimising the risk to ourselves and others which will help protect the future of this great sport – be very CLEAR about your responsiblities.

CLEAR

Conditions

• wind strength
• wind direction
• always keep downwind area well clear
• waves, tides and currents
• consider possible weather changes

Look

• before you launch, land, jump, jibe, etc.

Equipment

• always complete a pre-flight check
• use a kite leash
• use a quick release on anything you hook into
• practise using your safety systems regularly so that it becomes instinctive
• never exceed manufacturers specifications

Attitude

• always seek and listen to local advice
• do not exceed your limitations (we all have them)
• use judgement to prevent situations, do not rely on skill to try and get out of it

Respect

• others – be considerate and courteous to all other water and beach users
• the law
• fellow kiters – follow right of way rules
• the environment
