With your kite control taken care of, it’s time to take your kite boarding to the next level! You will learn how to water launch and Then use it to move around in the water. This is a lot of fun.  “Body dragging” includes moving upwind for board recovery, propelling left and right, to fully understand the power zone. After these exercise’s it’s all about adding the board – getting on the board, using it and the kite to get yourself up on the board to water start!
