I'll give you Free basic kite lessons in exchange for a berth

I have over 10 years of experience kiting and know how to teach (references available). I can't travel with a bunch of equipment, but I can typically bring what is needed so you can wait to buy gear when we figure out what you will need.

I'm willing to teach you for an exchange of at least a couple of weeks in a bunk. I am currently willing to provide my own provisioning.

I'm thinking basic lessons for 1 to 3 people. Larger groups, we can probably figure something out. I can typically get people up and riding in 3 days and going upwind in 5 days.

Warning: kiteboarding is addictive. I'm not kidding.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm currently in Corpus Christi, Texas, but will travel anywhere in the world with decent notice. I have sailing experience and can help crew for some extended kiting time in a good area.

Update: I've already gotten tied up in St Martin and Panama but should be available around mid February.
