The lesson will last 2-3 hours depending on the venue and are for a maximum of 3 persons.
All prices include Public Liability Insurance. Prices are to be found at the bottom of this page.
Each lesson will consist
of....Introducing and assembling the Blokart....Personal and Public safety...Wind and
venue briefing...Basic sailing techniques...How to stop...upwind and downwind turns... up
on '2 wheel' sailing...360's, spins and 'doughnuts'...dissembling and routine care.
Things to bring...Blasting across
beaches in winter can be rather messy so a change of clothes or a wetsuit worn under a
windproof jacket is best plus some form of eye protection (even sunglasses will help) A
helmet is not obligatory for adults although we do recommend you wear one...a cycle helmet
will do but a Gath (with visor) is better. Bring a camera too! For grass or asphalt venues
all you really need are some warm clothes.
Minimum age is 10 years old and those
under 16 years of age must wear
a helmet and have their parent's consent. (A cycle helmet will do.) There is no maximum
age.You do not need to be superfit to use a Blokart and they may also be used by people
with disabilities. |
