Getting a good start in kiteboarding |
|
The earliest kiteboarders were for the most part, self-taught. Teaching yourself is inherently difficult
and frought with unpleasant surprises, unforseen challanges , and is very time consuming. This gave rise to the "Kitemare", a tale of a scary kiteboarding ordeal. Learning to kiteboard is semi-difficult, somewhere between learning to wake-board and learning to ride a short-board in windsurfing. The difficulty of the process can deter many would be kiteboarders from making it through the early learning stages. In recent years there has been a huge increase in the number of good qualified instructors and schools available that it is a good idea to take a few professional lessons wether you are a beginner rider or intermediete. |
