Calling all kitesurfers keen to take their riding skills to the next level during an action packed long weekend clinic, while enjoying a luxurious stay and the breath-taking scenery of the Cornish coast. All this in the company of no other but one of kitesurfing most prominent UK ambassadors – Tom Court.
Suited towards independent riders who want to progress, this intensive clinic will elevate your skills to the next level, regardless if you are keen to lock in a new freestyle trick, improve your freeride technique or add a few meters to your personal Woo/Surf record.
Tom is an incredible coach with years of kiting and coaching experience in every discipline, and with an incredible amount of experience and knowledge of UK kite conditions. He will work with you personally on the water, followed by video analysis and debrief in the evenings to help you make the most of your time in the clinic.
For this clinic we will be staying in a luxurious villa set in an acre of private landscaped garden, located 500m from the perfection of Watergate Bay, on the North Coast of Cornwall, just a couple of miles from Newquay.
Giel burst onto the Big Air scene and is now one of the top players in the Big Air Kite League and was on fire for the KOTA last year. Since then he has claimed the first ever Double Megaloop – one of the biggest steps forward in the history of the sport – and he continues to drive the Big Air side of the sport forwards at blistering pace. Giel was also awarded “2022 GKA Rider of the Year” and also won “2022 GKA Move of the Year” award for performing an incredibly stylish S-loop.
Giel has been coaching for over 7 years, he has taught all levels of riding and his incredible passion for the sport shines through whoever he is working with. He loves seeing riders progress and believes that with commitment and hard work anything is achievable!
This day is the official arrival day and you can kite freely in one of the spots. In the evening we will get together for dinner and meet Giel and the other participants. There we will set your goals for the week and explain any further details.
We will start the day with a delicious breakfast and once the wind has started picking up, we will head to one of the many beaches Tarifa has to offer. We will be led by the wind conditions during the week, so you can expect a short journey to find the perfect spot for the day (renting a car for the duration of the clinic is essential, we can help you coordinate with other riders if you would like to team up).. Each day you will have four hours of coaching with Giel, where he will work with your personally on the goals you want to achieve.
You can continue kiting while the sun is up, or perhaps prefer to finish off the day with a cocktail at one of Tarifa’s beach bars. And for dinner, Tarifa has plenty of incredible restaurants to suit every taste.
On Friday, after breakfast you are free to head to the beach and work on the new moves you’ve picked up over the week, or you can take it easy and relax after the days packed with action.
Departure day. After an awesome week, it’s time to head home. Depending on your departure time, you might be able to squeeze in a last kite session…
Mid-way along Tarifa’s legendary beaches, Los Lances is a classic, with a wide sandy beach with plenty of space for launching and with plenty of space on the water to work on your Big Air game.
