Hello everyone, I want to share a little bit about the training at the «Play Kite» base in Egypt, Hurghada. This is the first time in my life that I have been trained in such a company of specialists who, with kindness and fun, tell everything, show, and teach by example what is possible and what is not. Alexander Vashlyaev deserves respect, he is a man with a capital letter since he was able to create and maintain such an interesting team in such a cool place. Thank you to everyone who taught me, it was great.

I did my kite lessons there. And I'm very happy because the teachers are real pro, they are always there to explain and to correct to ensure safety too. The staff are also friendly and helpful, the more, the spot is magical : wide beach, shallow water... Everything is just prefect ! I’ll be back soon. Thanks for everything!

I had a great time at Playkite Station in Hurghada. Even during wintertime where winds were often gusty I had a great teacher and learned how to go upwind. I can fully reccomend it and will be happy to be back!!

It was my second course, since 6 years after first one. First what we need to overcome its fear. Boris helped me to do that! For what Im extremely grateful. Most important what I get that it’s me who controlling the kite not otherwise, “don’t correct mistakes, bring and control the movement”. Boris is well experienced and professional instructor, I came to him from friends advice and will recommend him to others 100%!

I’m very thankful for the effective lessons and additional motivation. Now I have practical skills in the going down and upwind and automatic self rescuing. I will be happy to continue my lessons during next vacation with the same trainer.

I’ve been on play-kite for 10 days and have full kits-course with Boris. Boris - is high professional trainer with personal approach for every student. I’m thankful for clear instructions and max. involvement in process. Moreover, I was delighted about school overall: a lot of new equipment, friendly ready-to-help staff and cosy rest-zone.

I really liked Playkite school. Everyone was really friendly. I had a good time while training and a good time at the station. The teacher Boris was very helpful in every step of my learning. He was clear when giving instructions and patient. I’m very gratefully for my experience and I can’t wait to come back. Tomas

I have dreamed of doing kite surfing for a long time, but I wasn’t sure if I could do it. Finally I made up my mind and took a course in Hurghada with instructor Boris. I really liked the classes because of the clear explanation, a large number of practical exercises and a feeling of complete safety. Thank you for letting me believe in myself!
