Sharing the stoke and teaching with ALOHA.

Having read reviews from multiple instructors, Fellipe, the owner of Kiteboarding Paradise Hawaii, kept coming up with great reviews. It was relatively late notice, and we had just a week on Oahu, but Fellipe was able to make it work. My twin teenagers and myself - total beginners - spent a week taking kiteboarding lessons with Fellipe and Jason. They are both excellent instructors. Fellipe is very punctual and maximized the benefits of each session by giving us homework to do between lessons. We went from setup to launching and body dragging in 3 hours, and spent several more hours improving our kite skills, and board skills behind his well equipped jet ski. Fellipe took some great photos and videos of us that we are so glad to see now – to bring us back to that special experience. With an ankle and balance issue, it was a challenge for me, and I felt gripped. But Fellipe was able to help me relax while maintaining a very safe experience. His expertise, professionalism, and...

Fillipe is an incredible instructor. I’ve been struggling to get up foiling with available practice time and lessons in cold water prior and he got me over my hump. He was kind and patient and all around joyful and fun. His instructions were spot on to get my weight and body shifted to the proper places and have success.

I don’t normally write reviews but KiteboardingParadiseHawaii was so great I wanted to support a local small business. My WingFoil instructor, Fellipe, was amazing. He was professional, friendly, safety conscious and always on time. I was only in Hawaii for one week and Fellipe helped me plan my lessons to get the maximum benefit and save time/money. He was extremely knowledgeable about both the locations and gear we were using, this wasn’t his first rodeo. There are a lot “just okay” instructors on-island, but how Fellipe really impressed was because he himself was an expert waterman, knew kiting, foiling, winging inside and out. What also sets him apart from the from rest was his teaching ability, always with clear and calm explanations. If you are on the fence about pulling the trigger on lessons, just do it, you won’t regret it! Known it can be expensive, but it’s an investment in your future happiness (and safety), especially if you put your trust in Fellipe / KiteboardingPara...
