# South Africa Adventure 2011

Posted on February 15, 2026 by Jo

I have just got back home after a fantastic week of coaching in langebaan. 4 guys and 1 girl headed over from the UK. I arranged transport from the airport for them to come up to Langebaan where I had rented a 5 bedroom holiday house over looking Langebaan Lagoon. The house was pimp with massage showers and jacuzzi baths, a huge living room and a giant balcony with bbq area ideal for stretching in the mornings and evenings.

We had prime view for when the wind picked up and just like clock work the wind came in everyday somewhere between 18knots and 25 knots and even 30+ knots on the last evening for sunset sessions.

There was a range of levels from the crew. Jamie had had the least time on the water in the passed and as such was working on some transitions and jumping. Roz was busting back rolls, front rolls and some transitions. Matt was unhooking and pulled his first raileys, back rolls, front rolls, f16′s and was working on surface handle passes, big kite loops as well as air handle passes. His arms were falling off by the last day.

James was working on jump transitions, back rolls and front rolls and kite loops and Nick was working on boosting higher, landing his front rolls and the beginnings of unhooking as well as kite loops.

Throughout the week we mixed up eating South African steak in meat specialty restaurants, braai’s (bbq) and some good old home cooking!

We stretched twice daily and did some extra morning exercises, so a healthy holiday was had by all… well that is until the last night where the only thing healthy was the volume of rum we all drank! I had a fantastic time coaching everyone and look forward to another week out here at the same time next year! South Africa Rocks! That is for sure!!
