We provide all the essentials for your Kitesurfing, Kiteboarding, Kite landboarding, Kite buggying and Power kiting lessons, but you can bring items that will make the experience better. Here you can find a whole list of items to bring to your lesson...

 

 

Kite Surfing Lessons

For hygiene reasons we do not supply wetsuit boots or gloves but we highly recommend you bring some to the lesson.  If you do not have any, they can be purchased from Edgeriders.  Other things to bring:

 

  • Your own wetsuit if you have one - If not, we will need to know approx size to provide one.
  • Wetsuit boots - these are highly recomended as you may walk on rocks or sharp objects while in the water, we cannot provide these as a school for hygiene reasons.
  • Swimwear to wear underneath wetsuits ( this is essential if you are using school wetsuits!)
  • Towel!
  • Bin bag or dry bag for your wet gear.
  • Appropriately warm/water proof clothing clothing to suit varying conditions.
  • Suncream (at least SPF 25 is recommended due to the reflection off the water)
  • Sun Hat.
  • Strong sunglasses (at least Cat 3 is recommended)
  • Food and drink ( you will need at least one litre bottle of water due to high risk of dehydration on sunny days)
