Kitesurfing Courses Fuerteventura
Kitesurfing Courses are run on a continual basis with groups of not more than 6 people per course. Most people have very limited experience of kitesurfing so we have initially started offering only basic courses, and as clients begin to request more advanced manouvers we will offer more advanced instruction. Certificate / Licenses - We are an IKO recognized centre which means we teach to a certain standard and also means we can issue the IKO Kiteboarder card. These come in different levels depending on ability.
Introduction Course - 2 Days (8 Hours) Tue + Wed or Thurs + Fri or Sun + Mon. 11.00 € 220.00.
Day 1 - Introduction to kites with a look at different types and sizes. Rigging up (inflation, connecting lines, harness and how it works). Launching (off the beach). Landing (on the beach). Basic Flying movement, explanation of the window, etc. Getting kitted out (choosing the wetsuit, bouyancy aid, crash hat). Finally bodydragging downwind and gaining confidence in the water.
Day 2 - This day will start with another bodydrag session, then it's straight onto the board to practice! Waterstarting. Kite recovery from the water. Downwind sailing. By the end of these 8 hours most people should be at a level where they can hire equipment and be competent enough to sail (fly) by themselves, having gained the minimum understanding of what is required. They can of course go on and do the next level up which is the Conversion Course. They should also have gained IKO Level 2.
Improver Course - 2 Hours € 85.00. Any of the following topics can be choosen: Up wind sailing, Gybing, Jumping. These have to be done in this order, so unless you can Gybe, you can't learn to jump, etc. All courses include the kites, boards, wetsuits, bouyancy aid and instructor.
Private 1 Hour. € 50.00 (not including equipment). Anytime, anything of your choice.
Water Work Only. € 140.00. This course is aimed at people who have done a beginner kite course elsewhere and for one reason or another were unable to complete it or feel they would like to recap on the water work to boost their confidence. They know all the theory, are competent beach flyers but just need to cover body dragging and getting on the board. Warning Do Not Book This Course Unless You Know How To Re-Launch.
