The session
A time of exchange to discover or rediscover an exceptional site with a non-motorized activity accessible to all: Kiting.
- For the curious who wish to discover the thocs of the Etang de Thau and the Kite activity from a theoretical, security and logistical angle.
- For riders who know how to sail but who have never learned how to install their equipment.
- For the undecided. If you are hesitant about taking up this sport, this session will allow you to familiarize yourself with the activity. Accessible to all, you will be free to decide if you wish to continue your progress.
- For those practicing relaxation. Do you have friends or family kiting? Following this lesson, you will be able to actively help out at the practice site before returning to your towel to top up your tan.
Discovery :
A discovery of the lagoon and the activity focused on theory, basic safety and setting up the equipment. You will save practice time in your next session and you will understand essential theoretical concepts for the rest of your progress. This session also allows you to calmly help your kiter friends on a practice site!
Insiders/Riders :
If you are already kiting, we will provide you with additional analysis elements so that you can better examine your environment, get into the water as safely as possible, but also save energy in your navigation of all days at the drawbridge practice site and elsewhere.
