Activity Description - Kite Buggying

This is your opportunity to experience the new extreme sport that everyone wants to try – Kite Buggying!

A mixture of paragling/ kitesurfing & landyacting, except that instead of a fixed sail, a kite is under the control of the buggy rider and is used to propel the vehicle.

Buggying has come a long way since it first started out in 1990. The latest buggies are purpose built, light, high performance vehicles and are easy to handle. Seated in your three wheel, lightweight stainless steel buggy with your kite airborne 20 metres from your outstretched arms, you have the power. Kite buggies are very manoeuvrable and easily controlled. The pilot can steer a course between objects, accelerate or decelerate at will and easily stop the buggy.

The front wheel is steered by the pilot’s feet leaving both hands free to control the kites, with practice you can steer the buggy even upwind.

Regardless of age, as long as you are reasonably fit, and have respect for the wind, it is not difficult to become a safe kite buggier.

This full day activity starts with 2 hours of flying different sizes of 4 line power kites. The following four hours are spent developing your skills and experience all that kite buggying has to offer. You will learn to create traction, move forwards/backwards and turning in tight circles.

The sheer excitement and adrenalin rush of hurtling down the beach/grass or airstrip at 30mph in a kite buggy has to be experienced – this is not a sport for the faint hearted!
