If you’ve been thinking about kitesurfing in Sicily after the season, let me tell you—Lo Stagnone in winter is something else. The lagoon is almost completely empty, just a few locals around, and no schools open. It’s quiet, it’s peaceful, and it feels like the whole place is just for you. That being said, off-season […]
On the map. Lo Stagnone is a big lagoon located on the west coast of Sicily. 5 minutes south of Trapani airport, 1h drive from Palermo, with Marsala being the closest bigger city around. The lagoon is shallow and flat. From ankle deep to 2m maybe. Closed by Isola Grande on the west side. It’s […]
The trip. We arrived in the last week of November. Several airlines fly from Europe. Direct flights are available from Paris and Madrid (Fall 2022). For us, starting the journey in Sicily, meant a departure from Palermo with two stopovers, in Rome and Madrid. We chose Air Europa because they were the only ones who […]
What I would do differently if I had another shot! Leaving Africa, I was riding freely in all directions and started my adventure with turns. The continuation of learning took place on Lake Como. My first day off and kiting with foil was at the very beginning of the season. It turned out that a […]
This is how we do it. Working at @414kiting kite school your morning be like..
Warm-up routine to do before a kitesurf session. Built according to RAMP protocol.
A little guidebook on how [not] to start. At the outset, I would like to admit that for a long time nothing has rubbed my nose more than learning how to foil. Especially my first steps in this discipline of my beloved kitesurfing. So to the point. I spent the summer season of 2021 at […]
Overveiw and popular spots description. Lake Como, or Lago di Como (IT) is located in north Italy, just an hour drive from Milano. If you plan on flying in it is easily accessible by train. I would recommend coming here by car, especially if you intend to go kitesurfing. My first impression of this place […]
After the whole summer in paradise prison at Lake Como, I really wanted a vacation. There were few options, we considered even Brazil and Fuerteventura. It looked so appealing to just compose music and kitesurf at the best spot this time of the year at Barra Grande but there was a but. We got cold […]
Small town and commune in Como province. Google says it has around 1000 people living here and this seems about right. Such a beautiful and peaceful place...during the week. During the weekends it tends to get very busy and crowded. First place, that with people doesn't lose its charm. It's surrounded by mountains and Mount […]
The last few weeks were crazy, to say the least. From the top.Around October last year, after the second closedown due to c19, I decided that it was enough. I have become ready to pursue my life. It took me around a month to sort out all my feelings and thoughts. It took also a […]
Trafiłam na wideo z jego udziałem czekając w poczekalni poradni specjalistcznej - NFZ w pełnej krasiej. Kolejka na kilkadziesiąt osób, ludzie uzbrojeni w cierpliwość i prowiant, widać wprawieni w czekaniu. Czego jednak się nie robi, żeby dostać do polecanego, świetnego lekarza. Uzbrojona także w kanapki, wodę, słuchawki i tablet klikałam sobie przeglądając Youtube. Szukałam jakiejś […]
Weekend BC częściowo pochłonęła mgła! Zjadła Cypel, zjadła Gdynię. Zjadła wiatr?! Dla instruktorów niespodzianki aury i czekanie na wiatr to z jednej strony (czasem nużący) "stand by" a z drugiej chleb powszedni. Dla bosmana i biura to masa pracy związanej z organizacją grafiku, setki telefonów i okazja to ćwiczeń Zen. Wiatr to żywioł i te […]
