Why is a kiteboarding class so important?


Our Kiteboarding classes are certified by IKO (International Kiteboarding Organization). The student will receive an IKO card upon course completion. This card certifies that the student is a safe kiteborader and it has information regarding the student’s kiteboarding skill level. In some kiteboarding sites it is required to show an IKO card in order to rent kiteboarding equipment..

It is essential to take a class to become a safe kiteboarder.



Basic Course - $300.00
This course is 6 hours long. The first 2 hours are taught at the beach so that the student becomes familiar with neutral and acceleration zones (powerzone) as well as maneuvering the kite properly. 2 additional hours are for dragging and waterstart. Body dragging is learning how to use your body as a vehicle while navigating the ocean. Waterstart is navigating with a board.

Note: The equipment used in class is included in the package and it is designed for beginners.

Advanced Course - $100
This course is 2 hours long and it entails learning advanced techniques. You can choose which area(s) you would like to improve on.

Our season in Punta Chame, Panama is from mid-November until the end of April.
