I am looking to get some lessons soon but I am having some current money issues. I was wondering if the self rescue clinic would be helpful before I start my first lesson, or is it important to have a few lessons under my belt first?
I'm down for this. Been a few years since i've learnt, good to clean out the rust!
Self Rescue is part of the Lesson 1 syllabus and for sure will be helpful to know now but there's lots more you need to know prior to getting out safely on your own. My recommendation is to do at least 2 lessons to leave yourself in a place to confidently practice without compromising your or other people's safety. Drop me a pm with your mobile number and we'll discuss a possible lesson discount for you.
Great idea Guy. Anyone wanting to develop in kiting needs to know how to get themselves out of trouble. Nice one.
dont set up and launch your kite within 50m of other beach users especially upwind.
dont set up too large a kite for the wind conditions and your experience.
if you cant do this please find a deserted beach along way away from everyone.
Good points Andy. We'll also be going thru the road rules, just to remind everyone who gives way to whom on the water.
