Fernando is an exceptional instructor. Patient, encouraging and incredibly knowledgeable. I went from zero to riding in 3 days. Best experience of my trip to Brazil in Jericoacoara!

Carlos taught our whole family – kids included. He made it feel safe and fun. We’ll definitely be back next season. Jeri Kite is the real deal with extremely great equipment and BB talking helmets and communication.
