Hi there

Wondering if someone can help. i'm thinking of taking up kitesurfing but have no idea where to start. i live in newtown so i'm not that far from Brighton le sans area. If someone could let me know where i can take up lessons and things like that that would be great. Any tips on equipment and things like that would also be helpful.


thanks

Lisi,

I was in your position about 1.5 months ago. First of all, buy a trainer. You can get them for 160 bucks on seabreeze from newkiteboarding. Or pay a little extra and go to Kitepower in Sans Souci. They will give you a whole bunch of tips. It's worth the extra :)

Tom

P.s I also live in Newtown

Good Luck Lisi,

After spending 7 years kiting - the only advice I can pass on is that Kite power have been involved with kites well before kiteboarding started - they will be there to help you through all the line tangles, spare parts and advice you need, probably be there after your gone...

They have been running lessons since the beginning of time and have everything you need to make your wet dreams come true. (Kiteboarding Dreams)

If you live anywhere near Sydney, the choice is pretty simple.
