Kitesurfing at the lake Neusiedl, learn how to kitesurf in Austria
What is kitesurfing?
Kitesurfing is a fascinating new fun sport with an unequalled dynamic making use of nature’s forces. Compared to windsurfing, when kitesurfing you hold a kite in your hands instead of a surfing sail. However, kite boards are substantially shorter, and kites are steered with a bar. With a little exercise you will be able to jump for a couple of seconds long and several meters high – this is pure adrenaline!!
What do I need for kitesurfing?
Firstly, you will need a kite, suitable for your weight and the current wind conditions. For steering, you will need a bar with corresponding lines. Thirdly, you will need a board whose size and shape may vary according to wind conditions and skills. Harness and wetsuit complete the basic equipment. One huge advantage over windsurfing is that the kitesurfing equipment is way lighter and smaller.
How can I learn how to kitesurf?
In order to learn how to kite surf at the lake Neusiedl or any other spot in the world, it is absolutely necessary to take lessons at a kite school. There, you will be introduced to the sport step by step. Firstly, you will learn how to steer trainer kites on land. As soon as you get accustomed to the pull of the kite, we will take you into the water. Subsequently, you will learn the kite handling with a tube kite. While getting to know the full range and power of the kite, you may be able to let yourself be dragged through the water. If you have mastered this step successfully, you will already have your first attempts with the board. Who knows, maybe you will be riding your first meters right away!
Why take kitesurfing classes and why at the lake Neusiedl?
Kitesurfing can be dangerous, if you should try to learn it just by yourself – anywhere. When taking lessons at a professional kite school, you will learn the proper kite handling, safety measures and will be prepared for critical situations at our lake as well as any other spot in the world. Participating in a kitesurf course may reduce your risk of injury when kitesurfing by far. Also, you will obtain profound knowledge about the sport and its techniques that will help you be safe and have lots of fun at the lake Neusiedl as well as any other spot.
