Water sport can be relaxing too. Yoga outside of the studio!! Picnic on the sea and also hava a fabulous SUP birthday celebration! We are eager to have it all happening again. Thanks Oxbold and also the instructor, Wilson for giving us these memorable experiences. by Evonne39 - Sep 2021
Hospitality and great gear
Had the pleasure of renting an SUP board from Oxbold in Pahang for the whole day. Board, paddle and life jacket are in great condition, well-maintained. Oxbold's rep, Steven is warm and very helpful- giving me tips on where to head out on my solo paddle. Very quiet beach,
which means you have the whole ocean all to yourself! by Safari53727859159 - Dec 2018

When is the best time to learn kiteboarding in Malaysia? Kiteboarding or also known as kitesurfing, this sport gained popularity day by day at Balok Beach, Kuantan.
For Beginner:
The off monsoon season from middle Jan to early Oct (estimated 3 to 12 knots of wind). This season is mostly calm sea bed and a sunny day, sometimes slight sea swell. Perfect for beginners to learn kiteboarding. The best month with good wind and sunny day will be Jan to early March in Kuantan and Jan to middle May in Sabah.
For Intermediate and Advanced levels:
However, you may also choose to learn kiteboarding during the monsoon season from late Oct to early Jan (an estimated 15 to 30 knots of wind come with strong waves and rain in early monsoon) to learn kiteboarding, instructor will provide a smaller kite for your training based on your weight and skills.
What will I learn as a Beginner? You learn to fly a trainer kite for launching, landing, and kite control, and this will have a massive impact on your general kite awareness. These usually foil kites which are different from the inflatable tube kites we use when kiteboarding. These kites are easier to fly, they depower completely making them easy to recover when you make mistakes and are relatively cheap. Instructors will use a trainer kite during your first kite lessons to practice kite control.
CHOOSE YOUR KITEBOARDING LESSONVENUE OXBOLD offer two different venues for kiteboarding lessons in Malaysia. One in Peninsular East Coast of Malaysia, which is Balok Beach located in Kuantan. Another venue will be in East Malaysia, Sabah Borneo in Kudat at the tip of Borneo.
These 2 venues offer different wind conditions throughout the year however both were affected by the monsoon season for their gusty, strong wind and big waves from Oct to Dec, it's the playground for the pro kitesurfers period.
Check out both the kiteboarding lesson pages and plan which venue is fit your travel plan. Both instructors offer different lesson packages, for example, kitesurfing lessons charge by hour basic or day packages. Some included accommodation and airport transfer and the others do not have, this is due to a location far or close to the town.
If you are not sure and can't decide, we are always here to assist you to choose and plan your lesson.
