Indo Jax Kiteboard School - Wrightsville Beach & Carolina Beach
Kiteboarding, or kitesurfing as it is sometimes called, is an exciting and challenging sport! Kiteboarding can be done when windy conditions, unsuitable for surfing and other water sports, create ideal conditions for kitesurfing.
The Cape Fear Region is an ideal place to learn to kiteboard!. On most Spring, Summer and Fall days, a steady moderate sea breeze kicks up in the after noon and holds throughout the evening. This provides excellent conditions for experiencing the thrill of one of the fastest growing board sports. With our warm waters and tropical weather, there’s nothing more refreshing and exhilarating than an afternoon of kitesurfing.
Because of the unique challenges that kiteboarding presents, Indo Jax strongly suggests that anyone interested in learning to kiteboard, invest in lessons to make the experience enjoyable and hassle free. Kiteboarding lessons have been proven to drastically reduce the mistakes and frustration that starting on your own will lead to.
Indo Jax is dedicated to providing a kiteboarding program that suits your needs! Our experienced and highly trained instructors will get you up and riding quickly, safely and hassle free. We offer three stages of lessons, each of which builds on the previous lesson. Our instructors start you out on land, learning how to use the kite. Once ready, students can move to a beginner water lesson that is Jet Ski assisted. Finally, once proficient enough, students can move on to Jet Ski assisted intermediate lessons. Student can also purchase a package deal program that would give you all three stages for a discounted price.

A note about safety
Watersports such as surfing and kiteboarding can be a dangerous endeavor. Changing weather and surf can make the ocean unpredictable. At Indo Jax safety is our number one concern. All lessons will include an in-depth ocean safety and stretching/ fitness component before ever entering the water. We use soft foam boards with soft flexible fins for our surf lessons to ensure the safety of our students. Our intermediate and advanced kiteboard lessons will utilize our Jetski to follow our students. We take no risks when it comes to student safety, so there is always a chance a lesson or camp may be rescheduled in the event of unsafe conditions. All of our instructors are certified in CPR, lifesaving, first aid and have extensive ocean safety knowledge and lifesaving abilities. We are fully insured and keep our student to instructor ratios as low as necessary to ensure the safety of our students.
