DC kitesurfing -

Loic helped me go from struggling with kiteloops, being afraid of single rotations, and constantly crashing my board-offs, to, in just three months, successfully doing kiteloops between 7-10m and landing double rotation board-offs by the handle and by the fin on big kites. His step-by-step approach and off-the-water training program helped me achieve my goals much faster and more safely, even though I can only ride a maximum of two times a week. I'm 36, and I can’t afford to risk a major injury because I have a full-time job and a 1.5-year-old baby. Thanks to Loic, I’ve progressed without setbacks and now have a plan to try my first late backs and boogies soon."

Loic offers the whole package that a Bigair kitesurfer needs for controlled and fun progression. While practicing with him on the water and in regular online calls, he always picks and defines the right next step on this road, reaching from:
⭐ explanation of piloting the kite through the wind window, like I haven't experienced before,
⭐ on point video analysis,
⭐ personalized strength training,
⭐ being a great motivator
⭐ offering mental support after injuries.
5 stars +
Thanks for everything.

Loïc knows how to explain, encourage, and set up a progression and training plan to help reach your personal kiting goals. I've improved a lot both on and off the water this year while working with him, and I've really enjoyed the process! Feels good to finally feel the tiniest bit of "steeze" in my kiting.

Loic is an invaluable resource if you wish to progress your kiteboarding tricks and knowledge. He brings a strong technical understanding to your learning, which is often not explained in any other forum. He brings structure and an achievable goal setting framework to ensure you progress comfortably and safely.

Had a wonderful experience with Loic this winter in Cape Town. Loic knows all the ins and outs of kitesurfing. Gives the right feedback and the tips you need. Learned a lot from his clinic, very thankful?. The best kitesurf coach, strongly recommend it!!!!!!

I had a wonderful experience with Loic DC Kitesurfing in cape town. We did a total of 3 sessions, first one in Hermanus, 2nd one in Dolphin and 3rd one in front of Mystic house. Coming into the training I told Loic about my goal which is to work on the take off (both off flat water and off kickers), jump higher and perhaps pull some loops. Before the first training Loic took the initiative to call me and discuss how he could help me. Then we did the first training, with some tips I instantly felt a lot more comfortable in the air, as opposed to being pulled out of balance like I usually did. I also felt improved timing for heli-loops. In the 3rd session we worked on loops but we didn’t start with high powered loop immediately because I haven’t been pulling any proper ones. So we started with small transition jumps and aim to get the kite at the right position, and eventually at the end of the session I felt more comfortable and was able to push to higher loops.

I am really glad that I found Loic and want to take this opportunity to thank him for the effort. I could highly recommend Loic for kiters at whatever stages of their progression. He’s very good at breaking big targets down to bite-size exercises that are easier to work with. I really love how he makes the theories so much easier to understand. He is also very encouraging, that’s also quite important to keep my morale up.

Since I just started with kitesurfing I had a couple of private and group beginner lessons with Loic in Tarifa and Cape Town.

Loic is a very good teacher, takes the time to explain you everything clear and you always feel very safe! Also during the group lessons he divides his attention between everyone.

Next to the practical part, Loic is very knowledgeable on the theoretical part and therefore I can really recommend the theoretical grounding part as well!

His vibe and appearance are very relaxed. He is patient and explains the basics in a very calm tone.

Told him that I knew how to setup the kite and fly a bit, so he challenged me to think for myself and figure things out!

Even when I thought the conditions were too extreme for me he gave me confidence to go in and body drag and control the kite with success! After that you feel confident enough to go in again and again and again. He stays calm and takes his time to explain whatever is needed.

You can text him after the lessons to chat about gear, your level and he gives his opinion on what to do! He takes the time to take care of his pupils during but also after the kite lessons. He’s always prepared to help out wherever he can.

Highly recommend him as a coach to learn this addictive amazing sport!
