Get your kids out from their ipads and TV and get them to the beach.  We have found that if you can inspire a young person to take up a new sport – that person is changed for life!

A new sport builds confidence, its social, great for fitness and healthy by being outside and its so much better than living infront of a computer screen.  We start our Rippers teaching scheme from 5 years old – we cover windsurfing, surfing and stand up paddleboarding.  We teach in shallow lagoons using warm blindstitched wetsuits, bouyancy aids (for windsurfing and SUP) and safety gear.

We teach windsurfing using kids specific sails with small diameter booms to cope with small hands and reduced fin sizes in boards to improve manouverability;  soft deck surfboards and kids sized paddles for SUP.  The kids Rippers courses are fun and we have developed a style of tuition different to adults – “point and shoot” so there isnt much waiting around, its all action!  We also introduce “The Knowledge” to all Rippers – which is an introduction of basic information on tides and wind awareness.

So fancy getting your Rippers booked up?  Check out the different courses on our Kids Ripper Tuition Page – you can either book online or email us on info@x-train.co.uk or call the beach on 01243 513077 – or drop in and see us for a chat.
