Material

We use the latest equipment available on the market, kites and boards from Best and North kiteboarding, two of the biggest and arguably best brands in kite surfing, and boards from xelerator and nobile, to guarantee you the best equipment possible to kite in Tarifa. For the first contacts with kiting we have very stable Trainers and Bow kites in either 2- or 4-lines, for the more advanced we dispose of faster and more powerful Delta 4-line kites. Only 2009 bow and Delta kites are used in our kite courses, there are no ´kites from the past decade´, which makes learning to kite board a lot easier and safer. The kite school in Tarifa disposes of more than 40 kites from 1,5m trainer kites to 13m tube kites, which guarantees you the perfect size of kite for every wind condition in Tarifa and level. Especially in the beginning it is most important to use small kites to avoid any risk. Of course all our bars are equipped with the latest safety-systems. We dispose of sufficient long-legged wetsuits, seat-harnesses, life jackets and helmets to contribute to our most important target: teach you kiting under complete safety. We have various kite boards for every level: voluminous directionals and bigger twintips for beginners and smaller twintips for the more advanced kitesurfer.
