For nearly a year now, the IKO offers insurance packages for its certified instructors and affiliated centers. Recently, the IKO signed a group contract insurance for Kiteboarders and snow kiters as well. It is the first international insurance that covers the rider for both accident and liability.
I believe this is very important information for the Kiteboarding Community. I have therefore prepared a doc (attached) with details on each different insurance packages. If you need more detailed info on each policy, I"d be glad to pass them on to you, but I think that this covers quite enough for the readers.
IKO works on improving kiteboarding and improving the safety of the sport, from the instructor, school manager and kiteboarder"s perspective. Having insurance for the kiteboarders make them realize their actual level and become conscious of what they can do or can"t do (the student standards help determine that).
I hope I can count on your support to pass this information to your readers.
I am at your disposal for any further information that you may need.
Thank you,

de dekking als je een ander wat aan doet lijkt me wat laag, maar als je zelf wat hebt is 1.000.000 niet verkeerd :)
