Chris Bull, the founder of CBK (Hayling Island) is one of the original pioneers of kitesurfing from the late 90's, and has been running his kiteschool and shop near the The Golf Course Beach on Hayling since 1999.
The kitesurf school and the kitesurf shop have been established for 10 years now. However with the introduction of the kitesurf club this now allows all three core activities to be co-ordinated under one organisation. This gives you the opportunity to learn to kitesurf from scratch, to receive advice and advantageous pricing on both new and second hand equipment, and also to be a member of a kitesurf club where safety facilities are a constant on the beach when the wind blows, and where we look to provide members with significantly increased kitesurfing opportunities in offshore wind conditions too.
