Débuter le Kite à 50 ans

Commenté le 08/07/2021

Ma première séance de Kite avec le bateau école adapté pour apprendre à sortir de l'eau a été une réussite. Cédric est à l'écoute et patient. Il encourage et donne les bons conseils. Les 2 autres séances ont été reportées par manque de vent. Vivement la suite avec la voile la semaine prochaine! Je recommande fortement.

Super expérience pour mon cours d'initiation au kitesurf avec Cédric comme formateur. Hyper attentionné, toujours calme et à notre écoute, il a su nous expliquer, rassurer et toujours souriant. J'ai fait 3 cours qui permettent d'avoir un aperçu de la pratique du kite et déjà quelques sensations. Je recommande vivement !

Formation efficace grâce au simulateur

Commenté le 15/07/2019

Bonne formation mais dommage que sur ces 3 séances nous n’ayons pas pu essayer l’aile avec la planche sur l’eau ... Évidemment avec 5 séances c’est idéal Je reviendrai donc finir les 2 séances manquantes Un conseil aux débutants, faire une séance par jour et non 3 séances en enfilade ... les 2 premières le matin pour le simulateur (droit et gauche) et la 3ème l’après midi du troisième jour pour l’aile et le vent ... sinon trop fatiguant Je recommande quand même cette activité car bien encadrée ... et serez bien votre harnais sinon bobo les côtes
