Why is kitesurfing insurance essential?

Kitesurfing combines sea-specific and wind-specific risks : kite release in a gust, big air height fall, board impact, uncontrolled lofting, reef injury. Sea rescue (coastguard, beach lifeguards, helicopter) is never covered by standard health insurance.

Kitesurfing uses a traction kite and exposes you to height falls (big air, kite loop) absent from surfing and traditional windsurfing. Our cover includes kite-release rescue and repatriation specific to height injuries.

Our cover protects only the kiter, not the gear. The Baggage option reimburses theft, loss or damage to kite, bar, board, harness up to €2,000 per claim. For liability (damages to another rider or swimmer), take out cover via your federation or home insurance.

  1. Get help from coastal lifeguards or call sea rescue
  2. Keep the initial medical certificate and rescue invoice
  3. Notify AXEO Assistance as soon as possible
  4. Send all supporting documents (rescue report, medical invoices)

Yes, with the Competition add-on. Mondial du Vent (Leucate), GKA Kite-Surf stages (Big Air, Freestyle), IKA TT:R, regional contests and federation championships are covered during the event and training. Compare cover levels on our plans.

The price depends on your options, your departure country and the number of days covered. For a 1 to 2-week kite trip to Cape Verde or Mauritania, the daily plan suits; for regular kiters, the annual plan with Baggage option is best. Get your free quote online in 2 clicks.
