Getting Started?<br />
Kitesurfing is more about kite flying,<br />
and less about board control or<br />
balance. If you can confidently fly a<br />
kite and are aware of the power of<br />
the wind, you may be surprised how<br />
quickly you will progress.<br />
Kitesurfing without instruction can<br />
be very dangerous, not just for you<br />
but for those around you! It’s important<br />
to seek out qualified BKSA/<br />
IKO instructors or schools who will<br />
help you on your first steps.<br />
