"Founded in 1985 by Alan Cadiz, HST is one of the longest-running providers of windsurfing and kitesurfing lessons on Maui. The school also offers stand-up paddle and regular surfing lesson. If you’re new to kitesurfing, your instructor will give you a full tutorial on the beach. Once you’ve mastered how to set up, fly, and land the kite, you’ll head out to the water with a 10-foot paddle board—and your instructor—in tow. If you’re more advanced, you'll leave the instructor back on the beach and communicate via a waterproof radio." - Juliana Shallcross
