You will learn to ride goofy and regular while improving your body position and kite control to finally manage to stay upwind.
04
Upwind lesson 1 hour
This is the final step to become an independent kiter for it will give you the freedom to come in and out in the same spot instead of being drifted by the wind. Also you can try other spots even if the wind is onshore.
