We’re passionate about what we do, and it shows in every session — from the care we put into each lesson to the individual attention you receive.

Absolut top! Der Privatkurs war von Anfang bis Ende ein Erlebnis. Die Betreuung durch Cristhian war super professionell, strukturiert und trotzdem richtig entspannt – man hat gemerkt, dass hier jemand mit echter Leidenschaft dabei ist. Das Equipment war hochwertig und perfekt auf mein Niveau abgestimmt. Der Spaß beim Lernen ist garantiert. 😄 Wer Wing Foilen lernen will, ist hier genau richtig. Klare Empfehlung – ich würde jederzeit wiederkommen! Danke für die Erfahrung 🙂

Fantastic experience with Salao Watersports over several days of kitesurfing. Everything was well organized, relaxed, and clearly focused on safety, which made it easy to enjoy and focus on learning. My coach, Cristhian, was excellent. Every session was smooth, lighthearted, and genuinely fun, with a great balance between staying relaxed and maintaining a strong focus on safety and progress. The feedback on the water was very helpful, patient, and adapted exactly to what I needed. From getting back into it after years without kitesurfing to my first jumps in a few days. I am delighted! If you want to learn kitesurfing or seriously improve your skills, I highly recommend Salao Watersports. I will definitely come back. Big thanks to you, Cristhian! Edit: returned, and had a blast again. Improved my kiting, so only doing supervised kiting instead of lessons. Really worth it. Thank you again, Cristhian!

Cris ist einfach ein wunderbarer Lehrer. Er ist genau in dem Moment für dich da, in dem du ihn am meisten brauchst, und mit einer Ruhe und Aufmerksamkeit, die man selten findet. Sein Optimismus trägt dich durch die härtesten Momente, gerade dann, wenn du selbst längst nicht mehr an dich glaubst, und plötzlich schaffst du Dinge, die du dir nie zugetraut hättest. Und nebenbei ist er auch noch der höchste Springer am Spot :) Man spürt in jeder Minute: Wassersport ist für Cris kein Job, sondern seine Art zu leben und genau diese Leidenschaft gibt er an seine Schüler weiter. Von ganzem Herzen empfohlen , egal, ob du schon Erfahrung hast oder bisher nur fasziniert vom Ufer aus zugeschaut. Wer auf Fuerteventura kiten lernen möchte, ist bei Cris und dem Team von Salao in den allerbesten Händen.

His way and the way he dealt with me as a student was great. Always positive and at eye level. I always felt safe and I was given good tips to get better. I was able to try myself during the hours and could trust his constructive feedback. Even after the course everything was very relaxed and the communication via WhatsApp was just as easy and relaxed. Appointments were binding and everything was uncomplicated. I would come back immediately! A good choice for every kite level.

I had an amazing kitesurf session with Salao watersports! Cristhian was very welcoming and he is an excellent coach. He spends a lot of time explaining, demonstrating in slow motion close to you what to do and provides great feedback. Even when he is not with you, thanks to the earphones, he provides great tips to improve rapidly. You never feel alone and feel safe and the site is secure by jet-ski if needed. The location is beautiful and perfect to learn kitesurf! After the session, you leave the spot with a big smile! Great job Cristhian! Hasta pronto!
