Red Sea Boat Clinic
Last year was the first of our CKPerformance kite and wing clinics on the boat, and this year we plan much the same. You can come as a kiter, a winger, or both:) There is no better location to kick mix it up than aboard our Red Sea Boat Safari. Once again we’ll be on Philou’s new boat, doubling up on comfort, space and food:)
Whether you only kite, only wing or enjoy the best of both worlds, this could be the ultimate trip…?
And it just get’s better. With the extra rooms available, it is possible to bring along your non kiting/winging partner should they wish to join you.
This clinic is a 7 night, 6 day clinic. Arrival too Hurghada will be on Saturday the 1st of July, with departure on Saturday the 8th.
We say it every year, but nothing quite matches the heady mix of drifting through the most absurdly coloured waters, the conviviality of boat life, the peace and quiet, night skies lit up only by the stars and distant gas flares, freshly caught fish, snorkeling in one of the world’s finest aquariums, dolphins, phosphorescents, being rocked and hummed to sleep by the soporific sound of waves lapping against the hull, and waking to the sweet music of wind whistling and the halyards tapping out their upbeat rythm. And to top it all off there’ll be plenty of kiting, winging and oodles of coaching.
The crew on the boat do their absolute utmost to make your stay as fantastic as possible, nothing is too much trouble:)
The plan is to set sail on Sunday morning. We’ll then be cruising around various beautiful flat water spots, that also offer themselves up as wonderful winging spots in the deeper section just off the sandbars or behind the boat. Once again we’ll have Philou as our guide. He knows these waters and winds better than anyone, being the original kitesurf adventurer around these parts. Where we go and when will depend on wind and conditions.
The newly built boat, has both double and twin cabins, air con and plenty of deck space.
Coaching will be 6 days of CK Performance, plenty of whipping, whooping and improving. We have a big screen for video de-briefs and we’ll most likely squeeze in one kiting down-winder too.
We do require a minimum ability to kite upwind and happily relaunch your kite for this trip as we’ll be kiting in flat but offshore conditions, and for us to share our knowledge we’ll need to see plenty of you. However there is rescue so no need to hold back on the learning front.
On the winging front this will suit anyone who has their own equipment and can stay upwind off the foil. We’ll cover from getting up on the foil, riding on the foil, riding toe side, carving and gybing to tacking.
