Tired of slow progress from scattered lessons? These kiteboarding camps are designed for those who are ready to commit and become truly independent riders.

Typical kite lessons run for just 2 hours a day, which can stretch your learning curve for months or years! From my experience, the riders that learn fastest are the ones who can dedicate several consecutive days to nothing but kiteboarding.

Our camps are structured around exactly that. Over three FULL days, you'll build a solid foundation of independence and confidence on the water. Once you're comfortable, we’ll tailor the experience to your goals. Whether experiencing your first rides, jumping higher, riding strapless, learning to foil, or simply progressing faster in a supportive, high stoke environment.

Conditions to Progress

Sherman Island is one of the best kiteboarding locations in California.  It usually has warm weather and consistant winds. Many Bay Area kiters enjoy sessioning here, but sometimes it can be crowded.
Don't worry, we will be taking you to an island that is away from the crowds and has plenty of room to practice. Perfect to try your first body drags, riding strapless, or jumping in the air. Maybe at the end of your three days you will do a downwinder and land your own kite at Sherman Island launch site.

Our schedule depends on the weather conditions and everyone’s rhythm. The wind calls the day.

No Wind Activities

Sometimes mother-nature doesn’t want to cooperate. It's the nature of kiteboarding. Luckily we have some activities that we can do without the wind.

• Wakeboarding - to build board skills
• Technical kiteboarding classroom (Kite repairs, bar tuning, rules of the road, board shapes, and kite shapes, etc…)
• Efoil Sessions - to introduce a new way to enjoy the water

Small Print...

• We cannot guarantee the wind, but will do our best to give you a great experiene. We may sometimes start earlier or end later to find the best conditions.

We are very excited about this camp. We have always done travel camps to exotic areas, but never a local camp. These camps will be for those that want to practice in the area where they'll kiteboarding themselves! We hope to hear from you soon! Send it!
