Kite Landboard Courses

Duration: 1 day
Cost: £90

This is a one day course introducing you to the sport of kite landboarding.

Hunstanton offers great wide open beaches with hard sand which is great for landboarding. With landboarding you need to be able to fly powerkites at a reasonably level so we start at the very basics of introducing a variety of powerkites and run you through the kite set up. There is an element of theory involved in the course, including how the kite fly’s, outlining the windwindow and knowing the different zones etc. 

Once you have the full control and understanding of powerkites, we can introduce the landboard. Please take a look at the course content outlined below. Note* All equipment needed is provided and included in the price of the kite landboarding course.
