It is easily accessible you can go land kiting almost every day. We see land kiting as a unique sport of its own kind that we still love. Controlling and flying the kite, cruising on a mountain or skateboard or breaking speed records with a buggy - land kiting is wonderfully versatile. You can feel the power of the kite, cruise on a mountain or skateboard or collect kilometers in a buggy. That is pure freedom.

Land kiting is wonderfully versatile. Thus, our various land kite courses for deaf people offer the optimal and safe entry into the world of kite sports.

Beginning or Progress

Landkiting basic

With a lot of focus on practice, you will learn how to fly and steer the kite in the wind window and how to control the power of the wind. And believe us, controlling a kite and feeling the power has put a smile on everyone's face until now. Caution: risk of addiction!

Move on land

Mountain board or buggy

You will learn a safe and controlled handling of the equipment, first of all the kite control. Then it goes into more detail, where you gain practical skills, such as: safe driving, the first controlled changes of direction and free movement, even against the wind, with the kite.

The goal is that you can move around with the kite independently - of course under permanent supervision by your trainer. You just have to decide: mountain board or buggy? Both have an extreme appeal and, above all, are a lot of fun. With the mountainboard you can also go freestyle and jumps in the future, yes, this is also possible. With the buggy you can cover considerable distances and break your own speed records.

Children and adolescents

Landkiting for children

We definitely recommend landkiting for the youth. It's a lot of fun and you can practice all the movement sequences that you also need for kitesurfing on the water. While we usually recommend an age of 10 years and more for courses on the water, you can start a lot earlier with land kiting. Likewise, one celebrates faster successes with land kiting than on the water. 

Through the perfectly developed material, landkiting is a safe entry point for lightweights who want to control the power of the kite. We have a special range of courses for children and teens. Of course, you can book and participate in our country kite courses together with your children.
