Registration & introduction

We meet on the first day of the course at 12:00 at the kite center on the grounds of Camping Monja in Brenzone. First, we get to know each other and complete all necessary organizational points, such as registration and payment, to ensure that the kite course runs smoothly.

Theory unit & material science

Nun bereiten wir gemeinsam das Material für unsere Praxissession vor und du lernst unsere Kiteausrüstung sowie das Sicherheitssystem kennen. Anschließend besprechen wir die theoretischen Grundlagen welche du später fürs Wasser benötigst. Für die fortgeschrittenen Kiter unter euch und Teilnehmer am Privat Kitekurs organisieren wir eine separate Theorie. Wir gehen individuell auf dein persönliches Level ein und bereiten dich auf deine nächste Kitesession vor.

Practice session

On the first day of the course between 13:00 and 15:00 after a short break, we go out on the water and kite together for up to 4 hours, depending on the wind. We train in a group kite course in the buddy system with two students per setup so that you can regenerate yourself in between and make progress by observing other participants and following the tips and analyses from your kite instructor.

Planning & feedback

After the session, we will prepare the material and discuss the course schedule for the next day together. Since the daily schedule depends on wind and weather conditions, the kite course can start as early as 7:30am the following day. In the morning, it's time to get out on the water, while the theory lessons take place in a relaxed way after the session. After a day on the water, we often end the evening with a meal together or a cozy BBQ at our kite school on Lake Garda.
