$600.00

This lesson is a progression on from a beginner lesson, we will recap on the first lesson and then take your kite skills to the flat water, with the board in hand. Here is where the board riding skills are necessary, if this is a challenge for you we can practise wakeboarding with the boat assist.
We will practice water starts, water landing and launching. You will get the opportunity to start in the water, glide along and safely stop, sit back and then water start again in the opposite direction.

Prices per person (1-2 students per lesson).
