Let's Break The Rules
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

We make you a better Kitesurfer Kiteboarding Progression Lesson can help you learn quicker, safer and easier. Kitesufing is a complex, but rewarding sport, it involves a combination of several sport skills, including wakeboarding, surfing, and kiteflying. Different size kites allows you to kiteboard in various wind strengths. The bigger the kite, the lighter the wind you can go in and vice versa. With bigger kites you can get going in as little as 10 knots, and with smaller kites you can still sail along in strong winds of 35 knots or more.
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: Off monsoon season from April to Nov (estimated 3 to 12 knots of wind). However, you may also choose monsoon season to learn kite lesson, instructor willl provide a smaller kite for your training based on your weight and skills.
For Intermediate and Advance levels: Monsoon season is an ideal time from Nov to Mar (estimated 15 to 30 knots of wind).
Is Kitesurfing easy to learn? Compared to windsurfing, wakeboarding and surfing, kiteboarding is a relatively easy sport to learn. Most students are able to get up on their board after three to fifth lessons from our kiteboarding lesson in a good wind and weather conditions.
If you have prior experience in surfing, kite-flying, windsurfing or wakeboarding, the learning curve will be shorter, but anyone can learn provided they have the patience and willingness to learn. Being comfortable in the water will certainly help. With good instruction, the learning curve is accelerated. Without good instruction, or no instruction at all, kitesurfing can be quite dangerous and time-consuming. It is recommended that all beginners receive some sort of training or take up a proper lesson.
Should I take lessons? Kiteboarding is a safe sport only if you familiarize yourself with the safety aspects of the sport. Lessons are extremely important,
it is important to note that kiteboarders can pose a danger to the public. Tensioned lines are razor sharp and can cause cuts to innocent bystanders.
Lessons will jumpstart your learning process, and get you on the water quickly and safely.
