Can i teach myself to kitesurf?
It is a common question many people do. When you observe kite surfers, it seems easy to control as they do not even look at the kite while riding. All seems very easy, and so you might feel tempted to learn by yourself. However, kitesurfing can be dangerous if you are unaware of the basics. Kitesurfing is a high-risk activity if you do not know what you are doing. Self-learning usually is not worth the risk and can be much more expensive if you want to do it correctly. In this video, I will cover the problems of learning by yourself and some tips on how to do it better.
Self practicing can be a good idea, but the first attempts should be guided to understand what you are up against. With kitesurfing, the problems appear quickly and can be dangerous.
However, if you are a crazy self-learner kind of guy, here are some steps you can follow to help you out. Even if you take lessons, these steps still apply even after your lessons. I still recommend you to take lessons, and it is even cheaper than learning by yourself.
So I recommend you understand and learn the wind theory. Understanding the wind is crucial for a wind sport. You need to understand how it behaves so you can safely learn and practice.
Start with a small trainer kite. A trainer kite is a kite with very low power but allows you to understand the wind window's kite behavior without unbalancing it is pilot.
Use reliable and right equipment. So if you plan to start with used equipment, it might be a problem if you get outdated or equipment that is not trimmed correctly or for a specific use.
Use safety gear while learning, and mostly alone, the chances of getting injured increase.
Have a kitesurfer friend or someone else around. It is all new so having someone who understands what you are doing will be essential if you need help. Make sure you try on excellent and safe wind days. This is very important to make sure you have a good time. Also, choose the right place to practice so you can make your mistakes but still get back quickly and safely. To help you with that, make sure you have a water rescue plan if things do not go so well.
