About
Red Baron Kiteboarding School is a sports club located in Adelaide, Australia. As one of the leading kiteboarding schools in the region, Red Baron is dedicated to teaching individuals how to kitesurf quickly and safely. With experienced instructors who are level 2 IKO accredited, the school prioritises both friendliness and safety.
Red Baron Kiteboarding School utilises the latest technology from North Kites, specifically their Rebel range. These kites are known for their user-friendliness, intuitive safety systems, and durability. With easy relaunch capabilities and forgiveness, students are able to learn and progress at a faster rate. For those interested in purchasing kites from the North range, Red Baron recommends Onboard Snow and Surf, a local retailer known for their helpful and knowledgeable staff.
Not only does Red Baron prioritise safety and equipment quality, but they also utilise cutting-edge coaching technology. Headzone radio helmets are incorporated into their lessons, providing a waterproof headset that allows instructors to communicate with students both on land and in the water. This advanced level of communication enhances safety and facilitates quicker progression for students.
In addition to lessons, Red Baron offers kite rental services for those who want to continue practising independently. With a range of new season kites, harnesses, and boards available, students can rent a set for $80 per hour. A $500 deposit is required, which will be held against a credit card. Red Baron ensures that all necessary equipment, including life jackets and harnesses, is provided.
Lessons take place at Largs Bay Beach, specifically in front of the Largs Bay Yacht Club. This location was chosen for its open space, minimal waves, and shallow water, making it ideal for beginners. Red Baron has found that students progress faster when learning in a less crowded environment. Lessons are a minimum of two hours and prices range from $180 for the first lesson to $220 for subsequent lessons.
These prices include GST.
To stay informed about weather conditions and kiteboarding in general, Red Baron recommends several resources. The Bureau of Meteorology provides marine forecasts for metro beaches, while the daily observations give live summaries every half hour. Seabreeze and ikiteboarding. Com are excellent forums for weather information and discussion.
Progression, a set of training DVDs, can be found at Onboard Snow and Surf. Additionally, iksurfmag. Com offers informative articles and techniques for kiteboarding enthusiasts.
