Full description

The beautiful setting of Lake Como will be the backdrop to your first time kitesurfing!

You will participate in a theory lesson and a practical lesson, during which you will spend 30 minutes in the water letting yourself be carried away by the sail. In the meantime, an instructor from the dinghy will give you lessons and corrections to improve your technique.

A first approach to this aquatic discipline that will become your passion!

What we will do

The appointment is at the selected time at the meeting point in Dervio (LC). We will be welcomed by theinstructor who will keep us company during this kitesurfing trial lesson!

The experience will begin with a short theoretical lesson during which we will be explained what we are going to do in the water and will be given all the information we need to carry out the course. We will then receive our equipment and proceed with getting dressed; this first part will last about 30 minutes.

We will then head to the pier to embark on the dinghy and reach the centre of Lake Como: our practical test will take place in this beautiful natural setting, during which we will enter the water one at a time while theinstructor will communicate the necessary instructions via radio. In this first experience we will not use the board but only the sail, from which we will be pulled into the water, learning how to manage and direct it.

At the end of the practical test, we will return on board and wait for the other participants to perform: we can watch their exploits or relax in the sun.

We will then return to the meeting point. The experience will last between 1 and 3 hours in total, depending on the number of participants.
