Wingfoiling in Rhodes, Greece - Q&A about Reckless Riders and the surrounding area!

[@maribarrios8483]

I used to teach windsurfing and now am learning to wingfoil. I watch a lot of tutorial videos. Yours is the best I have seen. Concise, to the pount and without BS. The mark of sincerity. Congratulations!

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

Thank you for your kind words. I try to keep things simple and easy. I am glad you are enjoying the videos

[@flyingfootage]

Great video ,it answered all question I had 👍🏄🏼‍♂️

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

I am glad it helped! Let us know of any other questions you might have

[@flyingfootage]

how about impact vest and helmets, do I bring that myself. I will be joining you and your staff in two weeks time and I can’t wait, see you on location 😎🏄🏼‍♂️👍

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

Hey! We include vests and helmets, as well as knee pads, in our rentals but of course its always a better fit to have your own. You are welcome to use any of ours of course

@@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind Thanks for quick answer. 👍

Are there a van or SUV type of taxis (meanjng big enough (?)) from the airport to the your club location to carry gears ? (To carry a board bag which contains 80 liter board, 3 wings, & 2 foils sets).

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

@@Tobeon2 hey! Yes there should be no problem, although best to maybe prebook it. I have had customers coming with downwind board and got transport! If you can find something contact us directly and we will see how we can help! 🤙

Hi Kyriakos! I would be interested by Wingfoil but would like also to ride Kitesurf with my wife, on which we are far more familiar. I don’t see any kite (on the water or on the beach) on your vid, so is it allowed to practice, easy to takeoff and land on your beach, near your Wing school? Do you rent kite boards (TT…) and kite gears?, or do you work with another shop nearby to do so? It would be nice to be able to swap from one to the other, at least for me, but sharing time between learning wing and having fun with kite. 😎

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

Hi! Kiting is kept separate in Greece for safety reasons! So no kiting is not allowed in our bay. At Reckless Riders you can find winging, windsurfing, jetski and SUP! We do have a partner kite centre though called AirRiders kite procenter so you can check them out! By far the best kite spot

[@nicolasboudet9302]

@@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind ok! I ignored this fact! This explains well why no kite was visible! Is it a rule in all over Greece or specific to Rhodes island or to your spot?

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

@@nicolasboudet9302 the rulesnare more complicated than how I explained them but yes this is Greek rules. However, if other places follow them I cannot say… if you want to visit Reckless Riders though the kite centre Airriders is a 10min drive away

[@martynholder1971]

Do you have secure storage for my wing foil equipment?

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

Yes of course we do. You can keep it all with us on the spot

What are the season months?

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

Hi! Good question! Season is from May until October but for the best winds we usually recommend mid June to mid September!

[@johanwiklov3921]

Hi! How is the wind from november to late mars? Cheers Johan

[@kyriakosgiakoumaroswingandwind]

Hi johan, The wind in Rhodes is from May until October! all the other months its not worth coming for windsports as the wind is very random. Rhodes and most of the Greek island are primarily a summer destination
