Kitesurfing is one of the fastest growing and most exciting sports in the world (Hey, we just knocked Windsurfing out of the 2016 Olympics...). As a Kitesurfer you'll get to enjoy the free natural power of the wind and water in a way that most people will never experience. In addition, you'll get to meet awesome people AND get in great shape.
But here's the problem - Kitesurfing is not quite as easy as it looks. The truth is, Kitesurfing can be dangerous if you don't know what you're doing.
Of course not everyone who gives it a shot with borrowed gear and no clue gets hurt in the process (I actually started that way myself, but that was in the nineties...) I can assure you though that the people who are well informed and properly instructed learn a LOT faster and walk away from their first sessions with a lot less bruises and frustration.
Now, of course you can just go to a Kitesurfing School and take lessons, but it'll cost you both time and cash. Normal price in the US is between 60-100 dollars per hour, and believe me, no one has ever learned to Kitesurf with just one hour's worth of lessons.
Don't worry though, because here's your solution...
