Patrick and wahoo wind company knocked it out of the park. Their location is spot on and the wind here was perfect. Exquipment performed flawlessly. Patrick instructed very well to my capability and moved me along swiftly while testing me regularly. Could not recommend Patrick and the folks at wahoo wind co enough.

Absolutely stoked about my kiteboarding lessons with Patrick! From the start, his focus on safety and thorough instruction made me feel completely at ease. His patience, kindness, and encouragement kept me motivated, and I’m beyond thrilled with the progress I’ve made. He really takes the time to make sure you understand the techniques while keeping it fun and engaging. Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor—highly recommend!

Patrick was one of the greatest teachers I have ever had. He has master the balance between making you feel secure and letting you learn on your own independently. I would 10/10 recommend him as an instructor and also a humorous fellow!

Patrick was an exceptional instructor and had the right temperament for a student like me. Outstanding advice and recommendations on updated gear and next areas of instruction. Greatly improved my confidence on the water, handling the kite and best practices for a fun and also safe session on the ocean. Thank you Patrick!

I got the last days 8 hours kite surf lessons with Patrick in Rhodes. He is a great teacher, with his good explanations I got really quick in to it and felt always safe. He is a really fun teacher and very patient. I would book at any time another lesson with Patrick. Thanks Patrick

This was my first visit to Mexico and my second ever lesson kiteboarding. Patrick is everything anyone would want for in an instructor and as a person. He is a clear communicator who often uses relational examples, follows a safe and exacting progression of theory, good habits, practice and fun. Patrick even took the time to teach maintenance of equipment, observing conditions and where to get one for one (two for one) tacos!! It is clear that he loves the sport, wants to teach correctly and exudes joy. If you want to progress safely and quickly, go to Vela Baja Adventures in Los Barriles Mexico. The owner- Peter - has built a highly reputable, successful and sustainable business by hiring the highest quality people whom are also great instructors and sailors. I'm heading back next winter.

Patrick was really thoughtful and his attention to safety was impressive. He focused on the safest practices and kite handling above all else. I can’t rate him highly enough. I’ll be visiting him again in the future for more teaching!

I was extremely pleased with my 8 hours of instruction by Patrick. His cheery attitude and focus on safety were greatly appreciated. Having an instructor hooked on directly behind me offering tips throughout the lesson was extremely helpful.

Patrick and crew were amazing. Great equipment and superior instruction. Very friendly and easy going atmosphere. Highly recommended The only thing they need to make this experience perfect are seadoos. Hopefully next season they will !
