IMPROVER KITESURF CLINICS IN THE NORTH OF FUERTEVENTRA

Corralejo is an established coastal town/resort located only a short drive from airport in the North of Fuerteventura. Although a popular tourist resort it still retains some of it's original charm/character and the beaches/dunes on the edge of town rival some of Europes finest.

All guests stay in our sociable Hostel for Boardriders located in the popular harbour/marina area. Our Kitesurf Camp is great value for money and ideal for single travellers and young friends who want to learn how to kitesurf, meet other people and enjoy the laid back Canarian nightlife!

Flag Beach located on the outskirts of Corralejo is a fantastic kitesurf location offering flat waters and consistent winds in summer and waveriding conditions in winter. The warm climate, consistent wind and variety of conditions make it a great all year round kitesurf destination. The trade winds blow from as early as March through to Sept, summer is the prime season however there is sufficient wind for courses to run all year.

Our intermediate kitesurf program is aimed at people who have completed a beginner kite course and now want to progress and cover the water work side of things from body dragging onwards. Our aim is to help you perfect the water start, getting up on the board and riding in a controlled manner. Everything you need to become a self sufficent kitesurfer.

KITESurf School & KITESurf Lessons

The Kitesurf School was formed in 1999 by the owner of the already established and popular Windsurf centre in Corralejo (founded in 1987). In 2002 the Kitesurf School became an official IKO accredited kitesurf centre.

The coaching program has been developed according to the IKO (International Kiteboarding Organization) guidelines and the aim is for students to become safe, responsible and self-sufficient kitesurfers.

The Kitesurf Instructors are qualified via the International Kiteboarding Organisation (or VDWS equivalent) and all have the necessary skills and patience to help you progress in a safe but fun enviroment at your own pace. For safety reasons and to ensure you get the attention you need on dry land and in the water, the kitesurf Lessons have a low student to instructor ratio. All students are placed with an instructor who specialize in teaching at a particular level.

All courses are run in open water with boat assistance. In summer this tends to be at Flag Beach and in winter months the location of the course may change to suit local wind and swell conditions. All the equipment used by the Kitesurf School is provided by leading kitesurf brand NORTH and the equipment used for the courses is specifically designed for beginners and intermediates with ease of use, progression and safety being the key factors.

Our Intermediate Kitesurf program aimed at people who have covered all the steps on IKO level 1 (including body drag & relaunch) and are working through the steps on IKO level 2. It offers a refresher of the last steps of IKO level 1 and covers the most important steps on IKO level 2 including: body dragging (unhooked & hooked), using kite traction, body positioning for the water start, kite and power control, board and edging techniques, staying upwind.

As with most boardsports we all have our own learning curves and progress at different rates. So depending upon your ability, aptitude to learn, fitness, stamina and the kitesurf conditions you may cover some or all of the topics outlined above.

At the end of the course, students are assesed and given a official IKO Kiteboarder Card stating the level achieved. This can then be used to further your instruction or rent equipment at any recognised IKO centre.
