ProCamp Turkey
I don't know of a place that has a more surf-skate vibe and on top of that beautiful Mediterranean landscapes and up to 2 spots - including one with an absolute flat! Come with me to the paradise I recently discovered, which is only a 2h flight from Poland!
2 spots, lots of space and great wind stats!
Urla is a kind of Greek Turkey. You're ostensibly in Turkey, but you feel like you're in Greece. We're sitting on the Aegean Sea, not far from Athens, with a climate of mountains, quiet villages and azure water all around!
Here we have access to as many as 2 spots. The main spot is a bay with flat water from knee to waist, the further you go the deeper it gets, about 300m from the shore it is already very deep. Just cross the street from your hotel and you are immediately at the spot - no unnecessary commuting! On the second spot - the so-called Secret Spot - laboratory conditions for connoisseurs await you: total flat, cypher and offshore wind, you land on deep, empty on the spot and beautiful views of the mountains in the distance.
The wind is thermal - expect 15-25kts (sometimes under 30+ kts). It generally blows out as early as 8am and the wind levels off around midday, and you can swim until just after sunset!
We'll be sleeping at the unique Urla Surf House - the only hotel directly on the local lagoon. On site you get a surf-skate vibe that's unmistakable, breakfast in the form of out-of-the-box bowling, a pool, a ramp, and lots of vegetation. And the hosts? Great people. They organise a lot of interesting events and focus on sport and art.
And all this just a 2-hour flight from Poland and a 45min drive from Izmir airport!
TIMES:
1) 25.06 - 2.07 - flights from Warsaw - last room left!
What does ProCamp look like?
During ProCamp we will focus on advanced kitesurfing techniques. From the first jump to kiteloops, unhooked tricks or old-school variations. You'll learn the ins and outs of kite force physics, trick execution techniques and body biomechanics - all the secrets of long-term kite progression!
In the programme:
- daily training on the water with recording (1.5h) - 5 days
- small well-organised group max. 4 persons
- dry exercises for tricks - kiterooming
- workshops on kite knowledge and motor preparation
- video analysis and presentation of tricks
- swimming together at the Secret Spot with supervision

So what's ready for a progression for the start of the summer holidays?
Why train with me?
Because I know what progression looks like from the inside. I myself have walked the path from my first jumps to competing in the World Cup - and today I help others overcome their own barriers. I focus on the individual approach, video analysis, technique and mentality, but above all - on what makes you have the most fun swimming.
I don't teach 'from a ruler', I teach in a way that really works and gets results. I know when to press on and when to let go - because I've been exactly where you are.
