"This section teaches you how to body drag with your board, and how to retrieve it. Very often during kitesurfing, you will need to recover your board by body dragging zig-zag towards it. 

 

Especially when practicing in the ocean I found this skill very challenging, and not easy to achieve as the waves and the current get in the way.

I recommend sticking a waterproof tape on the board with your name and mobile number in case you lose it."
