KITEBOARDING LESSONS ON CAPE COD         SIGN WAIVER

 

At Inland Sea & Kitesite we're dedicated to creating safe, proficient and independent kiteboarders. Our kiteboarding lessons are geared to getting you on the water and riding in a safe manner as soon as possible. 

We primarily teach private 1-on-1 kiteboarding lessons giving you the most fun, effective, and personal learning experience possible. We do not encourage group lessons because standing around waiting for your turn is not the best use of your time or money.
 

1. Why take Kiteboarding Lessons with Kitesite.net?

  • We have Experienced instructors trained to keep you safe.
  • We use the latest teaching methods that are optimized for quick learning and progression.
  • We use the latest gear so the student can take advantage of the latest improvements in equipment performance and safety.
  • We use Radio Helmets which speed up the learning process by allowing instant feedback during the water lesson.

2. What are the lessons like?

The first lesson is land-based. The student is introduced to the kite and the control system for the kite. Once the student is comfortable with flying and controlling the kite, the water-based lessons begin. The first part of the water lesson consists of exercises without a board and focuses on learning how to fly and control a kite on the water as well as essential safety exercises.  Once that is done, the student begins working with the board and kite to attempt to ride!

3. How long does it take to learn how to Kiteboard? 

It depends entirely on the student's abilities. We have a skills based approach to our lesson program. There are a fixed number of skills required to be a competent and safe kiter. As soon as the student demonstrates proficiency in one skill, we immediately move on to the next skill. In effect, each lesson is customized to each student's abilities and experience. 

 

4. How much are the lessons? 

The lesson fee is $125 per hour for a one-on-one lesson.  We encourage people to book solo lessons because we have found that the student learns faster and it is more cost-effective in the long run.  For people that know each other, we do offer tandem lessons FOR THE FIRST LESSON ONLY. The lesson fee is $175 per hour for 2 people. Lessons are booked for 2 hour blocks per session.

 

5. What time do you run the lessons?

The lesson times are tide dependent.  For beginners, our teaching window is from 3 hours before low tide to 3 hours after low tide.  We feel that it easier to learn to kiteboard when the student can touch bottom.  Low tide varies from day to day so lesson windows change daily. We also need wind so lesson times revolve around tides and weather! Luckily, we are located on windy Cape Cod so we have a lot of opportunities for lessons. WE DO LESSONS 7 DAYS A WEEK!

 

6. How do you book a lesson?

You can call or email us to give us your contact information as well as days you are available for the lesson. For example, you can say you are available only on weekends, weekdays or for a specific set of days. For the students whose schedule matches the lesson window, a text message will be sent out and first responder gets the lesson slot.

7 . What happens if there is no wind  

  • No Wind=REFUND!  Seems fair :) 
 

8. There is no END of the LESSON: The kiteboarding lesson is over when you say it's over! We don't get you to a "certain point", check it off and call it good. We want you to go as far in the lessons as possible.

 

Generally we will have you working with the board after a few hours. These and other reasons, make kiteboarding lessons on Cape Cod with Inland Sea & Kitesite the cost effective, safe, personal experience kiteboarding should be!
