Kite surfing is no longer strange to Vietnamese people when it was introduced to Binh Thuan and Ninh Thuan more than 15 years ago, but perhaps it is still a sport for foreigners.
The windy season here lasts long and stable from November to April with long beaches and big waves. In winter, many foreigners come to Binh Thuan and the beach area is also full of people playing sports on the sea. Binh Thuan sea has strong winds and big waves, so playing Pub or kayaking is not suitable like the beaches in Phu Quoc.
The equipment needed for kite surfing includes kite, control bar, harness and board. For those who are proficient in this sport, you just need to go to the club and rent equipment to play. For those who have never known, are healthy and want to try, please spend some time to learn. For those who cannot swim like me or for children who want to try, you can play with a coach. Many paragliding clubs have sprung up here with short-term courses. It only takes a few hours for you to try playing with professional coaches. C2Sky Kitesurfing Vietnam, Vietnam Kiteboarding School, Jibe's Beach Club and many other clubs throughout Binh Thuan have taught thousands of students to know and love this interesting game.
To play kitesurfing, you must learn how to play. First, you must stand on the board with your feet fixed on two positions of the board. The belt and control bar are worn around your body. The instructor will show you how to hold the control, adjust the wind direction as well as how to stand firmly on the board. After you understand how to play, you can try it.
Although it has been introduced as a game for all ages, as long as you want, to play kitesurfing, you must know how to swim and be healthy, and love adventure sports. Kitesurfing requires physical strength and must grasp the technique, otherwise, you will drink a lot of sea water or get injured a lot.
When all the equipment is ready, the parachute will be assisted by the coach. The parachute flies up with the wind, the player will use the wind to glide over the waves or fly out of the water, somersault in the air... The wind is very strong when the parachute is stretched in the sky, the player must hold the rope firmly, stretch himself to hold and control the parachute above and the skis below his feet.
In the sky, the parachute is constantly soaring, the sun is shining brightly. On the ground, the surfboard is flying over the waves, the salty sea water is stinging the face. Occasionally, the surfboards fly up into the air and the skaters do somersaults. To do these beautiful moves is not simple. The parachute can fly too high, pulling the player up and dropping the player into the sea when you do not hold the parachute rope firmly. But if you do it, it will be very cool. The feeling of flying over the vast sea with sea water, wind, and sunshine is a wonderful feeling. Sports help release energy, bring people health, and reduce stress in daily life.
With year-round sunny and windy weather, Binh Thuan is introduced by Asia One's travel site in the Top 5 "paradises" for adventure experiences in Asia, including: Kitesurfing in Mui Ne (Vietnam), Indoor skydiving in Sentosa (Singapore), coral diving in Palawn (Philippines), conquering Everest Base Camp (Nepal), and bungee jumping in Macau (China).
