With number of detailed things, you can be overwhelmed when you start to kite surf. You should learn to kite surf efficiently to get the fear out of you.

Learning how to use your kite to pull you through the water from the beginning is a must. Body dragging is the first thing most people practice. Body dragging is when without using your board, you let the kite pull you through the water.

When you do go out with your board to Kitesurf in Thailand, this helps you have a good experience apart from gaining an understanding of the wind, essentially. You’re going to fall of your board sometimes just like surfing, or wakeboarding. So if that happens, you must know how to easily get over to your board.

Through the water, you use the kite to drag your body to get to your board. The act of dropping your kite followed by swimming to your board, and then trying to get back to your kite will obviously not be preferred by you.

Irrespective of the speed of wind, trick to control your speed is another technique you want to learn from the beginning. Most of the time, the wind should not be allowed to decide where you go and your going pace during your Kitesurf in Thailand.

 By paying attention to the sweet spot, you can control your speed. This spot is where you'll get the most power and where your kite is fully captured by the wind.

The areas right outside this sweet spot will be off at a different angle, and it'll still catch the wind. This will let you to keep moving, and slow down as well.

Using a mixture of all of these areas is essential. Between the two areas and the sweet spot around it, a good kitesurfer will rotate. The two areas are one just below and one just above.

By always moving out of the sweet spot and then through it again, this will let you to control it, and gain power. This is how you save yourself from bending to the whim of the wind and sailing through the air uncontrolled.

Once you learn how to properly manage the wind and gain control of your speed then you can start to play around. This is where, down on the water, you can land safely back after using the wind to pop you up into the air, and doing a flip.

Of course, you must learn many other things, and you should go to a Kite school in Thailand for that. As the winds are extremely consistent in speed and direction and strong, a lot of people go to the Thailand beach.
