If you’re looking for a unique way to experience Bitter End Yacht Club while also getting in shape, kiteboarding may be for you. Not only do you workout your entire body, but you also get the best AIR and SUN. If you’ve never been kite boarding, your best option is to take a few lessons with a trained professional. Training kites are available which will help you get used to flying while learning how to control your kite. Every lesson is an opportunity to work out. As you develop more control of the kite, each muscle is worked. The air from higher elevations is a wonderful feeling and can offer a stimulating workout for your lungs and blood circulation. The exhilarating feeling also releases endorphins in the brain which gives you that natural feeling of happiness.
Anyone with a moderate level of physical fitness, who is comfortable in the water and has a desire to learn, can try this sport. The key is learning how to fly the kite, because you have to be stable enough with that to begin paying attention to other things. Of course, everyone’s learning curve is different so when practicing be persistent, and patient, and you will get up on that board. With new equipment available, gone is the day where only the uber athlete or thrill seeking adrenaline junkie can do this sport. Current kiteboarding equipment is more predictable and safe.
