About Us
My name is Max Yoon, and I am the co-founder of this exciting water sport community. We are part of the Hi-Wind family, which is located in Seoul, they introduced kiteboarding to Korea. As a lifelong water sports enthusiast and expert kiteboarder and IKO instructor, I am passionate about sharing the joy of water sports with others.
Whether you are a seasoned pro looking for the ultimate adrenaline rush or a newcomer eager to try kitesurfing or wing foiling for the first time, we bring you to the perfect spot with safety instructions.
We host kite and wing foil camps in Jeju island, South Korea (April~Oct) and Phan rang, Vietnam (Nov~March). We can also arrange tours to different places such as Hainan, Okinawa and Mauritius. And time to time we also arrange downwinder trips.
Join us on the water and let’s make some memories together. We can’t wait to welcome you to the Hi-Wind family!
Sincerely,
Max Yoon
FAQ
where should I book my stay in Jeju to be close to the kitesurf and wing foil spots?
Most of the best windy spots are located on the east side of the island.
What is the best time to come to Jeju island?
During spring and fall you will have the highest chance for good windy days. The summer usually has lighter wind which is perfect for foiling. But don’t worry, Jeju island is known for its beauty, so even when there is no wind it will be worth to explore the island.
can I pay with card?
In Jeju and Vietnam you can either pay with cash or card. For card transactions we have to charge an extra 10%.
In Seoul we only accept cash or bank transfers for now.
How is the transportation in Jeju
We highly recommend renting a car in Jeju. There is public transportation but it can take a long time to reach some of the more secluded beaches.
If you’re staying at Seongsan, we can pick you up and drive together to the spots.
can I also rent a wetsuit?
Yes, we have wetsuits available. Let us know your size before you come so we can check if we have your size in our location.
Can I also buy gear instead of renting?
Of course! We have a dealership with Reedin, North, F-one, Slingshot, Duotone and Armstrong. We also can order Mystic and O’neil wetsuits. And we always have secondhand gear available for purchase.
are the beaches in Jeju beginner friendly?
Yes! Most beaches we travel to are shallow or lagoons which is perfect for beginners and for people to look to upgrade their skills.
