Kite-surfing in Switzerland?

Hi there,

do any of you possibly know where to start learning kite-surfing in Switzerland? Though I know it is soon winter... why not starting to plan next spring/ summer?

I am a complete beginner in kite-surfing, any advise would be appreciated.

thx,

It's already been discussed in other threads. If you search the forum you will find some more info.

Re: Kite-surfing in Switzerland?

Id first recommend learning on a beach. The kites are dangerous and powerful and sliding around on the sand is the easiest and safest way to start. I learnt in a weekend in Tarifa this spring and now can attempt Silvaplana plus its warmer in spain!
