We now offer Kids specific Kitesurfing Camps
Kids camps are 3 days long and are super fun for the younger kiter-to-be. The camp teaches the same skills as our individual beginner lessons in a group setting. Instructors go through all the safeties, have the kids practice safely launching and landing, kite flying, kite control, self rescue, body dragging, introducing the board. For the kids with some experience, the instructor’s pick up where they last left off. Each lesson is tailored to the individual child’s ability and confidence. The aim for all our students, whether young or young at heart is to teach them the skills to be an independent, safe and a confident kiteboarder.
The camp runs from 10:30 am to about 4 or 5 pm. We ask students to bring a lunch, water, sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses and layers. We recommend that kids have their own wetsuit to keep them comfortable in the water. Being cold limits their time that they are able to stay in the water during their lessons. As the lake is ocean-fed we recommend a thicker full suit (5,4 mil). The lessons are watercraft assisted and we use kite equipment that is meant for kids.
