Lake Garda is one of the best kite spots of Europe. With our famous North wind in the morning and South wind in the afternoon. Thanks to these 2 reliable thermal winds we teach every single day 1 lesson, most days even 2! All lessons on the water are thought by boat. No walking upwind, the boat just drives you back. Teaching with radio helmets for easy and clear communication. Working with Wind Riders is living the Italian lifestyle. Amazing food, aperitivo in the late afternoon after the second kitesession. Nice & relaxed working atmosphere.
Lifes a beach. Come join us on flip-flops.
