KBA Kitesurf Center

5 Destiny - 5 months ago

It was my first time trying kite boarding, and I took 10-hour lessons from Coach Mike in KBA. Surprisingly, as I tiny Asian woman I went from being scared of the huge kite, the strong wind and the scary waves to actually enjoying controlling the kite in a non-controlling way, getting on the board and surfing for a distance. It was of so much fun, like communicating with the great Nature and learning to be submissive to the universe. Maybe you don’t want to be a super fan or even a pro of kiteboarding, but this sport is worth trying and you’ll learn so much about yourself and life from it. Thanks KBA kitesurf Center, Coach Mike and Boss Dina for this incredible experience!!????????????

Highly recommended! Great location and great instructor!

I had a wonderful experience with KBA. So many reasons to recommend this place. Here are just a few of a long list:
•1st: Justin, the instructor who took care of me, who is also the owner. I had taken many lessons in many different places but I was still struggling to ride upwind. But thanks to Justin, in less than one hour, I could manage to ride upwind successfully!! Justin corrected me all the foundamental details that I was missing, step by step. He might seems a bit rude when coaching, but the results are there and in fact he’s a very cool guy. That’s just his way of pushing you to give the best of what you can do. Don’t get me wrong, he also supports you and motivates you during the lesson.

•2nd: The location. I was there during end of December for the new year holidays. At this time of the year, the good spot is at Chaloklum. It’s a great location: a lagoon with shallow water and an amazing view inside the bay.

•3rd: The shop is managed by Justin and his wife Dina who are very welcoming and very helpfull. When I was there, it was super busy because the wind conditions were good and Dina was always doing her best to find a solution to the customers even though they were fully booked.

I will definitely go back!!

Had a blast kiteboarding at KBA Koh Phangan for the week I stayed on the island. The rental equipment was in great condition, and got to try out a variety of kites and boards to match the conditions. Super friendly staff, instructors and other kiteboarders. Even got some nice photos taken by Justin! Will be back next time.

I was renting a full set of equipment for a day. Staff is amazing, everything was ready before I even came to the beach, very helpful and friendly. The water is a bit choppy during high tide but the conditions for riding in general is great. Highly recommend.

Great experience with Super Mike :)
He is a very experienced teacher and knows how to encourage the student .
He's perfect at figuring out what we are doing wrong and helps us understand the same and fix the mistakes.
Would highly recommend.

Had one session with Sunni as well, would highly recommend him too.

Overall Justin has a great team of instructors and the place has a very relaxed and chill vibe.
Would highly recommend learning/renting from them
