Kite surfing is a cross between wakeboarding, snowboarding, surfing, windsurfing and powerkiting and there’s nothing to compare when it comes to pure adrenaline sport. The amazing power generated by today’s kites coupled with their performance offers the kite surfer complete three dimensional freedom as with no other land or water based sport.
Cruising along butter smooth water, riding massive waves or flying through the air – kite surfing gives you all this and more.
Kite surf taster days from West Oz Kiteboarding are the best around and our taster day will give you an introduction to the sport. As with any naturally powered sport, lessons are imperative as the kites used are performance machines capable of delivering a nasty bight in untrained hands!
Our taster day is a one day lesson weather permitting and covers the basics of the sport. Training is by professional IKO instructors, so you have a guarantee of first class tuition.
Taster days are ideal for group parties too!
Stag, hen or corporate entertainment days always go down well. Let us know about your event and we’ll sort out a day to remember for you and your friends, family, clients or work mates. We can even get a special deal for you if you bring your friends!
Personal training is available on request for either 1 to 1 or 1 to 2 persons. Personal training is dependent on instructor availability and all outdoor courses are subject to cancellation due to adverse weather conditions.
What to bring with you
You will need a few things before you begin so please bring a towel, swimming trunks or similar and sun screen. We recommend complete sun block (30+) as you will spend some time looking up at your kite – we take sun safety very seriously at West Oz Kiteboarding. You may like to bring an old pair of sun glasses too. You will be issued with helmet wet suit, harness and buoyancy aids.
THE POPULAR WEST OZ TASTER SESSION
West Oz Kiteboarding offer the intro lesson for customers who are keen to have a bit of a taste of power kiting before committing to a course of lessons. This lesson is also highly recommended if you are keen to get into the sport but have had no prior kite flying experience. Intro lessons are the perfect introduction to the exciting world of water and land power kiting.
The Intro lesson is exactly what it sounds like, an introduction to the worlds fastest growing and most exciting water sport, kiteboarding. You get to see what it is like to fly a powered trainer kite under the instruction and guidance of one of our trained IKO instructors.
Lessons are held at Shoalwater approx 35 minutes south of Perth WA (for directions see location).

The cost of this lesson will be deducted from the purchase price of an Ozone Uno trainer kite should you decide to buy one at the end of your lesson to continue your practice. Trainer kites are the best way to maximize the value you get from your full lessons. The more time you spend flying trainer kites, the easier learning the sport is and the faster you will advance through your formal lessons on full size power kites. This will ultimately save you money!
With 10-15 hours flying, trainers give you a complete understanding of the wind window and also build intuitive control and muscle memory of how to fly a kite in adverse as well as predictable conditions. This experience directly translates to the larger Leading Edge Inflateable power kites we use to ride on the water and also on the large land foil kites used on land on buggys and mountain boards.
This is not an official IKO level lesson.
