FREE Kite/Wing Beginner lessons
& Progression Clinics

St Kilda Wind & Water Festival is Back!

The St Kilda Wind & Water Festival returns, and KR is stoked to be offering a stack of FREE on-water sessions to help you get started, stay safe, and step things up this season.

We’re running FREE 60-minute beginner kiteboarding and wingfoiling sessions for newcomers looking to kick off their journey the right way, plus a FREE Safety Clinic covering how the conditions work, how to read the wind and environment, and what to do when things don’t go to plan. This invaluable session is all about building confidence and keeping yourself—and others—safe, and will be run by IKO Examiner Chris Sal.
No booking required for the Safety Clinic.

On top of this, we’ll be running a range of Kite, Wing, Parawing, and Foil Assist progression clinics designed to help you level up and maximise your time on the water for the year ahead.

Bookings via the links below.
