Hi, I am planning to go to Mui Ne for a couple of days in Feb 2010 and I was wondering if anyone knew of a good kiteboarding school (that doesn't cost a small fortune) to get lessons. I have a training kite (2.5m) so I have a little bit of experience with kite flying but have no experience in the water. cheers

I've been to Mui Ne a few times and Jibe's is my favorite place there, period. It's a kite / wind surf shop run by a French bloke named Pascal (married to a Vietnamese gal). They also own and run a great little hotel called Full Moon Beach Resort, a few doors down from the kite shop on the beach. Both are in the link above. You need to plan (shop around) for your 4 hr shuttle ride up from Ho Chi Minh. The ride is pretty sketchy... cows, chickens, mopeds, and tour buses all weaving together. I recommend a seat belt, 3 beers, an ipod and a bandana. You'll have fun for sure.
im heading there in oct/NOV and staying at the sailing club resort that has storm kiteboarding attached will give a update on my return
wilfred, what are conditions like oct/nov? i've heard it's the wet season but low season for tourists.
