Kitesurf school software built by people who ran one

Viking was originally built for our own kitesurf school in the Netherlands. That experience shaped a booking and management system around the challenges kite schools deal with every day: changing wind conditions, instructor availability, planning, rescheduling and customer communication.

Take kitesurf bookings online

Let customers book and securely pay for lessons, rentals, camps or multi-lesson packages directly from your website.

Show real-time availability

Combine availability with your planning so customers can book available times online, 24/7.

Let customers manage their own bookings

Give every customer access to the Customer Portal, where they can manage bookings, schedule activities, sign waivers and find important information.

No wind? No problem.

Cancel affected activities and notify customers quickly. They can then choose a new available date themselves, without creating another round of calls and messages.

Manage your instructors in one place

Keep instructor availability, bookings and customer information together so everyone on your team knows what’s happening.

Automate customer communication

Send booking confirmations, activity updates and reminders automatically, while keeping personal communication in your team’s hands when it matters.

Built from the reality of running a kitesurf school

I love kitesurfing. But running a growing kitesurf school was a different story. More students meant more bookings, more calls, more emails, more schedule changes and more time spent behind a screen instead of on the water.

I knew there had to be a better way. Viking Bookings started inside our own kitesurf school in the Netherlands. Together with a team of developers, we built a system around the problems we were dealing with every day. What started as a tool for our own school became booking and management software for watersports businesses around the world.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is kitesurf school management software?

Can customers book kitesurf lessons, rentals and camps online?

Can customers schedule and reschedule their own bookings?

Can I add Viking to my existing kitesurf school website?

Is Viking a booking app for kitesurf schools?

Booking software made specifically for kitesurf schools

Generic booking tools can handle a reservation. Running a kitesurf school involves much more: instructor availability, changing conditions, lessons, rentals, camps, rescheduling, waivers, payments and keeping customers informed. Viking brings those workflows together in one kitesurf school management system.

More than a kitesurf school booking system

From the first online booking to the activity itself, Viking connects your Booking Engine, Customer Portal, planning and customer communication. That means fewer separate tools for your team and a smoother experience for your customers.
