About Us
Team Surfpoint
Surfpoint was born in 2009 by a group of friends who worked together as kite instructors. Over the years, Surfpoint has transformed into a family. Reflecting on what we achieved - it's hard to call it a school. We are a collective of people brought together by the same passion and frame of mind that allows us to teach kitesurfing as efficient as possible.
