I'm sorry i agree with dan, lucky bay is great place to learn... Yeah it is gusty but this has not stopped some of WA top riders from learning there hey dan... Just because you have a school down at Saftey Bay simon dont slag off other spots just to get business... Lucky's, Pelly's, Woodies & Saftybay are all excellent spots to learn at... Once you've had your lessons try them all... The search will get you rippin in no time...
My advice is dont pick a school because of location, pick a school because of their reputation and instructors... Choicey is one hell of a nice guy a fantastic instructor i'm told he's got all the gear there for you to use... Dan anderson has just completed a IKO instructor coarse I think and would be an excellent choice also... Ian Young would also be another excellent choice as would be Jason Lewis down at Saftey Bay... These Four guy's above have all been through the IKO schools them selve's, I'm sure you will find all their insurance levels for conducting kite lessons will be in order...
If you've never dropped your kite, your not trying hard enough ! To hear your knee go POP ruins a kite trip ! Sucide leash's and onshore conditions are a interesting combination !
