"Jane and Rebecca, Thanks you guys for a totally fun weekend. Your whole program is great. Both of us are hooked." Jim, Kiteboarding student Marley, Windsurfing student
"I was very happy [with the beginner windsurfing class]. This was a very effective lesson - very detailed, good communication, very deliberate. I was impressed." Jill, Windsurfing student
"I had such an awesome time last weekend. Flying in the wind for so long and only on my second day! Thank you. All I think and dream about is windsurfing now. You really know how to teach! This is better than sailing on a Hobie Cat 16 on the bay!!" Maria, Windsurfing student
"[Our instructor] created a comfortable atmosphere in which learning and making mistakes was fun. The on-the-water feedback was excellent as was the simulator. The lesson was outstanding." Adrian, Pivot Jibe student |
