KITESURFING

Kitesurfing training plans, built for your goal

Kitesurfing punishes hesitation more than most watersports — a mistimed kite loop or a stalled water start dumps you in the water and burns the session, so early progress comes from land-based kite control and a repeatable water start before board skills or jumps matter at all. SportBlox builds your kitesurfing training plan around your goal, current level and whether kite control, water starts or board skills is the real gap.

Who it's for

Board-off riding, unhooked control and jump technique for riders past the basics.

First season on the water

A foundational block building wind awareness, kite control and safety systems for someone new to the sport.

Personalisation

How SportBlox personalises it

Your goal & event date

Sessions build toward the specific goal and date you set, with a taper if you're racing or competing.

Your skill level

Volume and intensity scale to where you actually are, from Inexperienced to Professional.

Your stated weaknesses

Tell SportBlox about things like water-start consistency, kite positioning in gusty wind, toeside riding and the plan weights sessions toward fixing them.

Your schedule

The plan fits the days and time you say you have — not an idealised training week.

Works with Strava

Connect Strava and your logged sessions feed back into pacing and progression.

For coaches

Coaching a kitesurfing team?

SportBlox builds your team's training plan around the squad as a whole — its goals, weaknesses and upcoming events — and you review and refine every session before your athletes see it.

FAQ

Kitesurfing training plan FAQ

How many sessions per week does a kitesurfing plan include?

On-water sessions happen when wind conditions allow, supplemented by 3-4 land-based kite control, strength and mobility sessions each week.

Do I need my own kite and board to start?

Most beginners start on school equipment — tell it your access and lesson schedule and the plan builds around it.

Is this suitable for someone brand new to kitesurfing?

Yes, set skill level to Inexperienced and the plan starts with land-based kite control and safety systems before water starts.

Does it account for weather-dependent sessions?

Tell it your typical wind windows and on-water sessions are scheduled flexibly around them, with land-based work filling the gaps.

Does it work with Strava?

Yes — connect Strava and your logged on-water sessions feed back into pacing and progression.
