Where it starts
Essaouira, with transport to Diabat or Moulay Bouzerktoun included

This is for riders who can already ride on their own and stay upwind, and want to get past basic cruising: first jumps, first rotations, first waves. Every session is private, with Mohamed Achhibat himself, who has won national competitions on these same spots.

Pick a discipline: twin-tip freestyle (back rolls, front rolls, board-offs, kiteloops), strapless freestyle (pops, airs, grabs), strapless wave riding on the waves of Diabat and Sidi Kaouki, or big air, working on timing, edging and height before tricks. The trade winds, often above 20 knots, are ideal for going big.

Each session starts with a clear goal. Mohamed rides alongside you and corrects you in real time, the session is filmed, and you go through the video together afterwards, which saves weeks of trial and error. The spot is chosen for the conditions and your goals, with transport to Diabat or Moulay Bouzerktoun included.
