Kite Boarding Lessons

Kite Boarding all year around - Get with the program!


Kiteboarding is one of the fastest growing new water sports. Kiteboarding is the infusion of multiple other sports such as kiteflying, wakeboarding, and windboarding. This fascinating combination realizes mans eternal dream of flying. Specially designed large power kites propel their pilots across the water on kite boards. With Kiteboarding, it is possible to get insane air! Experienced pilots are getting 20 to 40 feet of air and performing amazing aerials.

Kiteboarding can also be a year-round sport. In summer, you can enjoy flight off waves or flat water and in the winter, you can carve through the snow. Kiteboarding is easy to learn and loads of fun, take yourself to the limits!

As with any dangerous and physically demanding extreme sport, we always recommend seeking professional assistance.
Kiteboarding has many attractive benefits to offer. It is very portable, affordable, it is possible to do in lower winds, and you can learn to launch huge air even off flat water! Kiteboarding is the wildest new water sport!

At Fort Lauderdale Kite boarding Co., we are dedicated to teaching and promoting this exciting new sport in a manner that is both safe and fun!

We accomplish this in many ways:

  1. KITE boarding TRAINER INTRO

    TRAINER KITE AND INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEO, OR DVD, AND VCR OR DVD PLAYER/MONITOR CAN BE RENTED TOGETHER FOR $95/ DAY (WITH 1 HR KITE INSTRUCTION).  THIS WILL GREATLY INCREASE THE SPEED AT WHICH WE CAN MOVE THROUGH THE GROUND WORK SECTION OF YOUR KITEBOARDING / KITEboarding LESSON AND WILL ALLOW FOR MORE TIME ON THE WATER.

  2. KITE boarding LEVEL A

    A KITEBOARDING / KITEboarding LESSON PACKAGE RUNS 3-3.5 HRS. AND COSTS $225.  A WAVERUNNER SUPPORT VESSEL WILL BE USED FOR SAFETY AND CONVENIENCE IN THIS CLASS.  AFTER TAKING THIS LESSON A STUDENTS WILL UNDERSTAND HOW TO SAFELY LAUNCH, LAND, AND FLY THE KITE.  POWER STROKE, AND THE BODY DRAG FINISH UP THIS LESSON.  MOST STUDENTS REQUIRE A SECOND LESSON TO GET THE WATER-START DOWN AND BEGIN KITEBOARDING.  AT WHICH TIME THE STUDENT SHOULD BE READY TO BUY GEAR AND START SHREDDING.  FEEL FREE TO READ OVER OUR PASA APPROVED LESSON PLAN.

  3. KITE boarding LEVEL B

    SOME STUDENTS PREFER TO PROGRESS FASTER, AND  ADVANCED LESSONS WILL ARE WELL WORTH THE ADDED INVESTMENT.  BEYOND KITE ISSUES THE NEXT THING TO LEARN IN KITEBOARDING / KITEboarding IS STAYING UP WIND.  HAVING AN INSTRUCTOR BY YOUR SIDE TO HELP FINE TUNE RELAUCH TECHNIQUE, ETC. CAN SAVE A LOT OF TIME AND FRUSTRATION, BUT GETTING A RIDE BACK INSTEAD OF TAKING THE "WALK OF SHAME" BACK UPWIND OFTEN SAVES 1-2 HOURS OF WALKING THROUGH THE BAY TRYING TO MANAGE ALL YOUR GEAR.   BESIDES STAYING UPWIND ADVANCED LESSONS ALSO COVER THE JIBE AND SWITCH, SWITCH AND JIBE, RIDING TOE-SIDE, WAVE RIDING, AND JUMPING.  ADVANCED LESSONS ARE CUSTOM DESIGNED SO YOU ARE FOCUSING ON AREAS OF YOUR CHOICE.  COST IS $90/ HR.
