JAVIER PATON MULERO

Me dio el espacio suficiente para aprender e intentarlo por mi cuenta a la vez que estaba muy atento por si algo pasaba dándome muy buenos consejos practicos e instrucciones muy claras. Un makina! Un abrazo si me lees y de verdad que para la primera vez fue increíble y muy emocionante, le recordaré siempre!

Recomendable 100%, el centro muy profesional: todo organizado, ordenado y limpio. El instructor de 10, no podíamos tener mejor profe que Javier. Sin duda repetiremos cuando volvamos a Fuerteventura.

Came to the Egli kite centre to test & compare 2 kites. Had so much fun surfing one of them, that the instructor reminded me to switch- was super helpful, fun to talk to, got a free ride on the jet ski when I was tired. Great time!!

I had an amazing experience with Javier and the entire team at Rene Egli. The lessons were professional, well-structured, and always focused on safety, which made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process. It was a lot of fun learning new kiteboarding skills, and the instructor was encouraging and incredibly knowledgeable. The location was absolutely stunning, I highly recommend this school for anyone wanting a safe and fun adventure on the water.

Det Wind nicht so, dass wir alle unsere Stunden absolvieren konnten. Das ist in der Regel im September immer fraglich, daher hätte ich mir gewünscht, wenn dies im Vorfeld mitgeteilt wird. Dann hätten wir einen andere Ort gewählt, um Kitesurfen zu erlernen. Im Ort waren wir völlig frei. Das ist sehr ärgerlich, da wir im Urlaub Kitesurfen lernen wollten und in 11 Tagen 2 Kurse machen wollten und so nicht mal einen vollständig absolviert haben. Aus diesem Grund und dem sehr undurchsichtigen Wartelistensystem gebe ich dem Schulservice nur 2 Punkte. Der Kurs war, wenn er stattfand richt gut. Die Trainer sind sehr kompent. Das kann man besser nicht machen.

Als ü60 learner hatte ich in Javier einen erfahrenen Lehrer der sich um alles sehr gut mit seinem Team gekümmert hat. Wg der oft instabilen Winde ist es ein schwierigeres Terrain, aber nach 1-2 Tagen kann man sich auch an diese Herausforderungen gewöhnen. Die Kite Station und das Revier inkl. Hotel Innside Melia ist sehr zu empfehlen, auch für learner die schon ein paar Schulungstage an anderen Stationen hinter sich haben.

For reference. I’ve took kite surfing lessons at Rene Egli Fuerteventura both in June 2022 and Apr 2023. The location is one of the best in the world, large and long white sand beach, turquoise water, big chance of good wind all year round and plenty of space for both PRO kiters and total beginners. The crew is remarkable, friendly yet professional instructors, solid crew with several folks having 10+ years activity on the island. I was in particular impressed with the organization, where each instructor takes no more than 2 students and that gives you enough personal time to assimilate the skills faster. I also felt very safe, all instructors are ready to act any moment as safe guards, jumping on the ski jets ( they had 3 available ) and getting to you on the sea in close to no time, when you get into harder situations. Equipment is the best, you have access to the same gear used for top competitions, even the ones used during first courses by beginners. At the reception you have a cozy beach bar, changing room is equipped with lockers ( ask at reception for a cyphered locker) and everyone is very friendly, that feeling of a nice community where you want to belong.. I am currently just starting to feel the fun of my first rides after successfully decoding the secrets of water start, and thanks to the folks here this happen in only 20 effective course hours spread across 2 holidays, one year apart one from each other. Net-net I had a great time during both years and i’ll certainly return, at least until I become a solid independent rider :) Thank you Javi, Mike, Paulina, Simba, Thomas and all the others! Catalin

Very solid and well-equipped kiting school at René Egli on Fuerteventura. Unfortunately there was little wind in September, but it was worth it with good theory and instruction. Always happy to go to Fuerte!

This was my first week kite surfing and I am so happy about my progress, all because of the proficient instructors. They know so well when they need to give the right instructions, top make the quickest process. Also, the school is very flexibel in rescheduling lessons, might one be skipped due to too much/less wind. Lovely.

I was welcomed with open arms and everyone was so nice. The Kiteinstructors and also the people at the reception were always in a good mood and made sure you were having a good time. I even had a course in polish, which is so cool. One thing that could have been better is, that you not always have the same instructors. But since they have to flexible because of the language, it is understandable. They were really trying to give me my instructor from day 1 but it didn’t work out 2 times . For me personally it wasn’t a big deal, since everyone there was really nice. They really check on you if you are ok when you come out of the water and celebrate with you when you managed a task by yourself. Also René Egli has a good rescue system with jetskis which save you when you land to far out. The first I landed too far out in the water I felt unsafe but my family told she always had an eye on me and later came with a jetski. Even when you fell with the kite other kiteinstructors ask if you are ok. I did learn a lot there and had a great time thanks to the people. I hope I can be back soon as a real Kitesurfer.
