Be sure to choose a school or kite center that is reputable. Or insist on formal certification cards that show your training and level.
Fining a good Instructor can be tough ... The IKO is trying to help by offering students the ability to check IKO instructor ratings online.
Many schools although not IKO affiliated hire and use IKO instructors to teach at their school ...
Be sure to check out your instructor before you take lessons. To ensure quality teaching with internationally recognized standards insist on a training certification card showing your level and training to you have received to date.
Instructor ratings can be seen online at

Here's wishing you folks a safe and fun Kiteboarding experience.
