About

Lohera

Read full description

Kite wind forecast that respects your skill. Lohera scores nearby kite spots against your IKO level, rider weight, and kite sizes, then tells you where to ride and which kite to rig. It is built for the real decision before a session: is this spot safe, is the wind right, and is it worth going now? HOW LOHERA WORKS • Find kite spots near your current location • Score each spot against wind, gusts, direction, hazards, and your profile • See which kite size fits the forecast and your quiver • Check spot details with wind windows, forecast strips, notes, and hazards • Save favourite spots and create custom wind alerts • Explore kite spots on the map before you travel PERSONALISED FOR KITERS Lohera asks for your IKO-aligned skill level, rider weight, and kite sizes. A beginner and an advanced rider should not get the same recommendation for the same conditions. Lohera is designed around that difference. FREE FEATURES • Nearby kite-spot recommendations • Today’s conditions for spots within local range • Kite-size guidance based on your profile • Map view with kite spots and conditions • Save favourite spots LOHERA PREMIUM • Forecast any kite spot, not just nearby spots • See the full 7-day outlook • Create wind alerts for saved spots • Plan sessions before the wind arrives COVERAGE Lohera includes 3,600+ kite spots worldwide, across Europe, Brazil, Australia, Canada, South Africa, New Zealand, the United States, Mexico, the Philippines, Egypt, Peru, Argentina, Sri Lanka, and more. SAFETY Kitesurfing is an inherently risky sport. Lohera is a forecast and planning tool, not a replacement for local knowledge, lessons, beach rules, rescue services, or your own judgement. Always check conditions on site before launching. Privacy-first: your location is used to find nearby kite spots. We do not sell your data.
