Extremely disorganized and terrible customer service. Got the 6-hour beginner package for 3 of us. 3 hours on a Saturday and 3 hours on a Sunday. The hour scheduled on the phone was changed the night before via email is the first blow and proof of disorganization. Day 1: We arrive no one is there. Some guy comes around class time and says the instructor is at Caesar Chavez Park and to meet him there. The class starts 30 min late bc of this but ends at the scheduled time. On the flip side the instructor was really nice. Day 2: I call to verify the class time. Got the response that one of the jet-skis were broken so we might likely be cancelled and that she would call me back in an hour. 2 hours not a word, so I call back and find that indeed the jet-ski was broken and it wouldn't happen today. Then I get a bunch of crap about how all 3 of us cannot get on the water next week and that she will try to reschedule other customers to see if possible and call me back. I really wonder how they will try to make up for it. I'll update the review accordingly. But with my experience so far, I strongly recommend to pick an alternative school for people looking to learn kiteboarding.

I did their camp in La Ventana this year. They are friendly and have solid hospitality but their instruction is exceptionally poor. I worked with 3 different instructors. One who seemed to have no idea how to teach or any plan of progression. Another who communicated well. Another who just didn't have the right words to teach me. Their instructors directly contradicted each other. I would be told to do something specific by one and the next day another would tell me to ignore what the first instructor had said. Fortunately I came in beyond the absolute beginner level. I was able to spend enough time in the water to progress to where I felt I needed to be to start kiting on my own after the camp. I picked up a few tips on kite control, linking transitions and starting to jump. Mostly, I just treated my camp fee as rental and supervision fee. I stayed out in the water and pushed myself as much as possible. This style of learning doesn't work for everyone. I felt really bad for the absolute beginners. They forced them to body drag in surf over sharp rocks for days on end. They kept claiming that you aren't allowed to try anything with a board until you can body drag upwind. As valuable of a skill as that may be, when the current and wind are headed in the same direction it's quite difficult to achieve. This also shows that they completely fail to recognize that the board would be carried down the beach by the current as well as blown in the same direction by the wind. As a result, you DO NOT have to be able to body drag upwind extensively to get your board back. Simply staying even with the beach will allow your board to drift back in front of you for relaunch. I've taken lessons with other companies before this and they put a board in my hands on the first day so that I could see how all the different pieces of the puzzle come together. Watching 1/2 the students spend 6 days in a kiteboarding camp without ever getting access to the board was appalling. Intermediate to advanced riders might be able to get something from this company if you have the right instructor. I wouldn't recommend them to beginners under any circumstance.

Brandon and Danny are awesome! Jumped into kiting this year and, although theyve been super busy teaching all the other zealous students like myself, they run a great school and take the time each person needs. Bought a 5 lesson package and couldnt be more satisfied!

Received a 2 hour lesson as a gift. Super happy with the experience. Had a great time. First learned about the basics of wind, launching your kite on land, and kite safety. Then we headed to the water and started to figure out how make runs up and down the shore. Didn't quite get to using a board, but next lesson is where that would happen. Very glad for the gift!

This guy overbooked and set me up to basically teach myself while he taught another student that was more advanced. Then he told me that he'd give me a discount on my next lesson if I would give him positive reviews on yelp. Stay away from this crook!
