Power-kiting is a sport accessible to pretty much everyone from 6 years old and up. It is an exhilarating experience harnessing the power of the wind. Whether it is for a bit of fun on the beach whilst on holiday or to progress further towards kitesurfing or kite land boarding, then a power-kite lesson is a great way to start!
Power-Kite Intro
Power-kiting is one of the fastest growing beach activities in the UK, is great exercise and you don’t need to be particularly fit or strong. You will definitely feel the buzz and maybe feel a little ache here and there afterwards but it’s a ‘good’ aching feeling!
Lessons from Ocean High will get you flying kites and having fun straight away but you will also learn about the safety considerations needed to be a competent kite flyer.
