​END OF 2022 WIND SEASON

  • There is a season for wind?
    • ​​Yes! Our wind season in Southern California runs from March to October.
    • During our season we have reliable wind 3 to 5 times a week that last anywhere from 4-6 hours during the day.  Wind speeds during this time of year range between 15 to 20 MPH.  These conditions are what allow us to be out in full force teaching during the spring and summer. 
  • What produces our wind and why is there an off season?
    • Our wind is produced by thermals.  This basically means the cooler ocean air at the beach is sucked into the hot deserts during the spring and summer months.  This is what produces a clean reliable wind great for teaching!
    • During the fall and winter months the deserts begin to cool, and the pressure gradients between the beaches and the desert begin to weaken.  Due to this cooling our wind strength and duration become weaker and shorter.  
  • I still see kites at the beach on occasion, why shut down shop?
    • We want to provide you with the best possible service.  To do this we need reliable stable wind speeds of 16mph to last the entirety of your 2 hour lesson.  During the winter our wind may only hit 12-13mph for a brief 30 minutes. The individuals you see out there are able to take advantage of this light short wind with their years of experience on a hydrofoil board.  This expert level board takes many months of practice during our regular wind season to be able to ride during our winter months. 
  • I'm still super excited about Off The Hook Kiteboarding , and want to get out with them no matter what! How can I do this?
    • We are so stoked that so many of you would like to continue riding with us into the winter.  To continue the fun we have a few awesome options for you!
      • Come with us down to Los Barriles, Mexico! Jump into kiteboarding with a kiteboarding trip where you can learn in the crystal blue waters of Baja. For more information on our trips click here Baja Trips!
      • Come eFoil with us in Belmont! No wind no problem! Our battery powered Lift eFoils will get you out on the water flying like we do in the summer!  Click here to check out our eFoil lessons!
  • All that sounds great, but I really want to kick off next season with you.  How can I sign up for next season?
    • If you want to be among the first contacted for when we open back up in 2023 please fill out the contact form bellow. Once we notice wind conditions starting to develop we will contact you right away to sign you up!
