For safety reasons, we do not rent kites to students and only rent kites to fully independent kiteboarders. Our reason for this, is for the safety of the student, but also the safety of the public on the beach and on the water. When your instructor has given you the green light to rent, we are happy to do so!

To rent, you must fill out a rental waiver and leave a credit card or a driver’s license with us while the gear is out. The rental gear is located at the school on the lakeshore to the left of the Nitinat Lake Recreational Campground. One can access the lake through the campground. We’re easy to spot on the beach with two large tents, Elevation Kiteboarding and Duotone signage. The school opens at 10:30 am to 5:00 pm every windy day. The gear needs to be returned each day back to the school by 5:00 pm or 2:00 pm if the wind has not come up. The gear cannot leave the lake.

We have a variety of the latest Duotone boards (twintip and surfboards) and kites (Rebel and Neo).

To rent one must be able to perform all of the following:

Rig on their ownLaunch and land safelyRetrieve your boardRide consistently in both directions without crashing the kiteRide upwindTurnPerform a self rescue

*If you do not meet these requirements we recommend a lesson.
