Kiteboarding: going upwind is unlocking the freedom formula | Photo: Ozone

Upwind kiteboarding is what separates beginners from intermediate and advanced riders. Riding into the wind is opening up all possible moving directions.

Kiteboarders can ride their kites anywhere up to an angle of 45 degrees to the wind. This means that you're nearly sailing directly against the wind or, in other words, zigzagging across the wind.

After mastering the art of riding downwind, it's time to unlock total kiteboarding freedom and leave the "walk of shame" for the upcoming beginners on the beach. If you can go upwind, you can turn and ride downwind, and vice-versa. Pretty useful, isn't it?
