Course EVOLUTION
This course is designed to get the most out of your learning.
You will have your own personal instructor, radio helmet and the kite always in your hands.
1. KITE CONTROL ON THE SAND
Wind conditions, setting up equipment, learning to fly the kite, keeping it still, taking off, landing, using one hand. You will learn to master the kite perfectly while on the sand.
2. KITE CONTROL IN THE WATER
Everything we learned on the sand we put into practice in the water. We will generate the power necessary to drag ourselves in the water (body drag).
From here the fun really begins!
3. BOARD EXERCICES
Once we can control the kite, we will start exercises with the board: We put our feet on the board remembering that we have a kite to control, maintain body posture – always with your back to the wind and if all goes well, we will start to move the kite and try our first attempts to stand up on the board.
This is the famous water start. From here we only have to practice until we get to ride our first meters.
HOW MANY DAYS DO I NEED TO LEARN TO KITESURF?
This varies depending on wind conditions, the type of course you are doing and on each
person. We all learn at a different pace.
In a private course every minute is dedicated to teaching you so you will generally learn faster than with a group course.
You have a personal instructor, a tailor-made lesson and the kite in your hands at all times.
For those with previous experience or who wish to advance beyond the basic level, we offer the
possibility of adding intermediate levels that cover skills such as transitions, jumps, hydrofoil and
kite surfing among other advanced aspects of kitesurfing.
These courses are designed to improve your existing skills and take you to the next level of mastery in this exciting water sport.
At the end of your course, you are able to obtain international level IKO (International Kitesurf Organization) certification that will help you continue elsewhere or rent equipment.

The one that best suits your time, objective, budget….
Kite Obsession offers 3 types of courses depending on the number of students, always under the care and attention of a qualified instructor.
Kitesurf group course: Groups of 3 or 4 students and 1 instructor.
This course is made for people who already know each other and want to enjoy their first
kiteboarding experience together. Wetsuit, harness, helmet and vest are included and the kite is
shared between 2 people.
Semi-private kitesurf course: 2 students and 1 instructor. Wetsuit, harness, helmet and vest are
included.
1 or 2 kites can be used depending on the students skills, the conditions and the instructor’s
decision.
It is the ideal course to do with a friend, a family member, a partner…
The real secret to progress quickly in kitesurfing lies in the time that the teacher is by your side.
Therefore a semi-private course is a good way to learn faster.
Private Kitesurf Course: This is the best way to learn and also the fastest. All equipment is
included and your own personal instructor teaching and correcting you at all times.
Any of these three courses can be done by a beginner starting from zero.
An instructor with extensive experience, dedicated exclusively to teaching kitesurfing in Tarifa with its particular wind conditions. All of them with an international IKO (International Kitesurf Organization) and/or National FAV (Andalusian Sailing Federation) qualification.
Most importantly, they are passionate about this sport and enjoy teaching and sharing their knowledge.
At the end of your kitesurfing course you can obtain an IKO international level certificate which enables you to continue your course elsewhere and rent equipment.
Yes we provide all the equipment: wetsuit, harness, vest, helmet, kite, bar and board from the best quality brands such as Core, O’Neill and Crazy Fly.
Our private and semi-private courses also provide you with radio helmets so that you can always hear your instructor.
Comfortable clothing, sunglasses, sun protection, cap or hat. Lots of water and above all enthusiasm and energy because you are going to have a really great time!
It is very common once students finish their lesson that they ask for more (meaning that they
loved it!). Regardless of the level reached, the courses can be extended for as long as you need.
There is no standard course. You can start with 2 or 3 days and increase them according to your progression and your desire.
There is also the option of adding more hours to the course from the start so that it adapts to your needs eg 3-hour private course, 4-hour semi-private course, etc…
The first and most important is the certification and experience of our instructors who will ensure your safety at all times.
We use top quality brands and equipment in perfect condition.
As well as 3 rescue boats ready to assist whenever students are in the water.
