keho lake | super scaredy cats kitesurf spot
Canada · Alberta
Overview
Super Scaredy Cats is a launch spot in the northwest corner of Keho Lake, specially named to reassure beginners. It's the safest place on the lake to learn kitesurfing.
The northwest corner is sheltered from the strongest Chinooks and offers a very shallow area where you can stand everywhere. Wind is generally lighter than on the rest of the lake thanks to the sheltering effect. Ideal for first waterstarts and progression. Season from May to October.
