Where to ride

How we write these guides

Real sensors

Every spot links to working wind stations, such as Windguru, Holfuy and local networks like neduet.ru in St Petersburg, so you see the wind now, not only a model.

Checked facts

Rules, seasons and hazards are cross-checked across schools, local forums and official sources before they go on the page.

Rider language

Written for kiters: side-shore or offshore, flat or chop, what size kite. No travel-brochure filler.
