Today we were blessed with a lot of North wind. And with a lot I mean a lot! The whole lake was full of wind. Our students were riding with 7 and 6 meters! But the wind was nice and stabile. At the end of the session I got the “oeps I lost my board sign” from Martijn. Martijn was riding undersupervision so we came to help him. But the board was nowhere to be found. After the lesson I kept looking for it for 2 hours. No luck. But than a kite chick from Xkite called me to tell me she found my board. Thanks to the phone number on the board she could get in touch with us:)
At 2 o’clock the north wind finished and we got a weak south wind. Hopefully more tomorrow.
Dubble action; morning and afternoon sessions!

23. July
This week the wind is like it should be every single week; good wind in the morning and good wind in the afternoon! At 7 am the wind is already strong enough to go out, and also this morning two guys were waiting to go with us on the water. Willy with his own North kite, and Tom who continued his test lesson. First we dropped Willy, who couldn’t wait to go out and try his new kite. Unfortunately the bar was a shitty second hand bar, and it wasn’t easy to work with. Afterwards Mika repaired it, and hopefully it will work now. Nevertheless Willy had a good session riding downwind on the beautiful Lake Garda with a nice morning sun.
Tom went into the water for the first time and he did so well! The steering was no problem for him at all and he controlled the kite perfectly. After 2 hours his energy was gone, and also the wind got less so we decided to go back and have a long lunch break.
At 1 pm our new students arrived, Stefan and Toni. It was the second lesson for both of them and they tried to manage the upwind bodydragging with and without board. The wind was really consistent and stabile, so it was an easy exercise and after half an hour they were both ready to practice the waterstart. Keep your body small and stand above your board!!! After yelling that order for 5 times they both made a great waterstart and after crashing a couple of times they made lots of meters standing on their board. Stefan was happy and also really exhausted, and Toni was full of adrenaline and didn’t stop smiling!
The wind was only getting stronger so after Mika dropped us at the harbor, she went out again together with Sergio. The moment I’m writing this they’re still on the water, but I’m sure they’ll enjoy J
What do we do on our afternoon off? We kitesurf!!
