The equipment was first rate and the instruction and instructor were incredible. I would recommend bringing knee pads while learning on the efoil as the surface is a bit hard on the knees.

If you're serious about learning kiteboarding, New Wave Kiteboarding is the place to go! Top quality instruction and equipment with a perfect and safe area to learn out on flat-water. James and Josh run a tight ship to ensure safety and the best learning experience you can ask for out on the water. Looking forward to getting out there again in the near future.

Having prior kiting experience (but being out of the sport for 10+ years) I was primarily interested in accessing a safe kiting location and renting quality gear. Not only was the location and gear fantastic, but Josh and James are both great instructors. They are super chill, patient, and all around fantastic ambassadors for the sport. I'd definitely recommend New Wave Kiteboarding to anyone. Whether you're a first time newbie or an experienced rider, look no further for a quality kiteboarding school. I can't thank you guys enough for the experience. Feeling super stoked!

Nick was a patient teacher with excellent demonstration skills. They have a nice walkie-talkie in your ear to help you with in-the-moment tips. Nick kept things safe and fun, and considering he also teaches at a flight school, it's no wonder he's such a great teacher. Highly recommend New Wave Kiteboarding!

These guys are amazing! I’ve taken two lessons with them so far and I cannot say enough good about them. They use a pontoon boat to access the shallow water sand bar, which is much easier to learn on than the beach. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for kiteboarding lessons!

I Strongly recommend them for Kite boarding lessons. Take a three hour private lesson--because they have access to a place in the Bay, that has no big waves, you will really get a lot of experience and instruction packed into the lesson.

I enjoy kiting out in Stuart because the waves aren’t intense and the sport has challenges when learning, so removing an element makes the learning curve a bit less.
We travel out by pontoon boat to the sandbars, so that you can stand practicing kite skills or body dragging but easily ride once you’re ready. Once you’re up and riding, the headset comes in handy because Jeremy can coach you through any mistakes you may be making.
It’s a unique and efficient set up. Recommend to all of my friends that are trying to learn!

Best lessons money can buy and I’ve tried everyone. You can learn in one day what will take 2/3 lessons on the beach. Don't waste your time with anyone else. Calm flat water is key for learning the fundamentals and Jeremy has access to the best spot.

I have taken lessons in multiple places and I got more out of one lesson than I did out of four or five other lessons. Jeremy is a great teacher and can very easily spot what you are doing wrong. Every other instructor I ever had could “show” the right way to do things. Only Jeremy could see what I was doing wrong

I could go on about how professional and skilled they are, but at the end of the day our family came off the water with the best family adventure to date. The grins and smiles are still in place a week later. No doubt, this is the absolute best team to teach or advance your kiteboarding skills!
