A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE TRIP
Pure sport/For a week of introduction to kitesurfing, head to the Tunisian island, its sun, its hot water! In the north-east of the island, a huge lagoon where you can set foot awaits you.
Throughout the week, Moussa and his kitesurfing instructors will introduce you to this sport and give you personalized advice.
You learn how to properly prepare your equipment, how to read the conditions of the day and adapt to them, how to control your waterstart (leaving independently from the lake), what position to adopt to facilitate your gliding, etc. Very quickly, the sensations are there!
For better learning, you work in a small group with a dedicated instructor for 4 students. For beginners, we prefer to learn in pairs until you master the waterstart. It allows you to quickly acquire wing takeoff and landing techniques, safety information, etc., and thus allows you to launch more quickly.
Kaiss, representing UCPA Djerba and his team, are waiting for you:
5 days are dedicated to kitesurfing or another activity depending on the wind.
Your instructor adapts the rhythm of the week and adjusts the schedules to increase practical time on windy days and reduce it on less interesting days.
Whatever the spot, it is rare to have 5 days of wind during a one-week stay. The average is of the order of two to three days with winds between 15 and 25 knots, which already allow you to practice and progress in good conditions. The stay consists of time for practice, theory, and a proposal for an alternative activity on windless days.
