Ride is the alternative for those who know what they want. After the course you will safely and independently be able to continue with kitesurfing on your own.

During the course you have time to digest your knowledge and repeat what you’ve learned with an experienced instructor by your side. Want to learn kitesurfing from scratch? – It’s the Ride you should go for.

Ride usually begins on Friday or Saturday and lasts for two days. During June, July and August, we also have Ride courses starting on weekdays.

If you are a group of four who book the course together you can choose the exact dates yourselves.

The course consists of two theory sessions and two practical water-sessions which include the following elements:

• Spot Check – how to determine if a beach is safe for kitesurfing
• Wind Theory
• Safe and convenient rigging
• Review and testing of various safety systems
• Launch and land
• Hand Signals
• Flight exercises with kite
• Independent launching of the kite from the water
• Body Drag – get a sense of the kite’s potential power by letting it pull you in the water.
• Brädstart – make your first few metres on the board
• Right of way rules
• Keep on riding – we teach you the correct riding style
• Go upwind – edge the board as you go up against the wind
• Turns – We’ll show you how to stop and ride the other direction

All equipment is naturally included in the course fee.

Number of days: Two (4*2,5h)

Course fee: 2990 SEK

Wind warranty
If it stops blowing, we continue the wind-requiring parts of kite course another day. We plan the time together so that you get as much time on the water as possible in windy conditions.

Customer Satisfaction Guarantee

More than 99% of our students would recommend our kite school to others. That’s something we are very proud of. Therefore, we have introduced customer satisfaction guarantee on all kite courses. Read more
