Adventure Scotland - brought to you by Scotland's National Tourism Organisation

Based in Aberdeen and teaching on a mobile basis throughout the North East of Scotland, Synergy Kitesports offer quality tuition, coaching and equipment sales in powerkiting, kite landboarding, kite buggying and kitesurfing.

We teach on a mobile basis because kitesports are wind dependant and travelling to where the wind conditions are best for the activity gives the best experience for the participants.

What we do best:

We teach the IKO syllabus, Levels 1 to 3 (beginner up to first jumps). We also coach more advanced freestyle.

Available packages

Two day IKO Level 1 course £200, one day IKO Level 2 course £100.

Group sessions (group size maximum six people for landbased sessions, maximum four students for water based sessions).

Individual tuition is also available, tailored to your needs and experience. £30 per hour.

Other activities available
