Log your sessions; that is how Windulu gets to know you.
The advice is a tool. You remain responsible for your own safety.
Elburg on the Veluwemeer has flat, shallow water beside the fortified town. Calm and well suited to learning, with zoning in the summer half of the year.
Zoning: from April through September, kiting only in the designated zone (spot map of the NKV, the Dutch kitesurfing association).
The open water at Elburg (Veluwemeer) faces WSW (245°). The safest wind directions to get on the water here are south, southwest, west and northwest (onshore or cross-onshore). With the wind from the north and southeast, it runs cross to cross-offshore: doable, but mind your position and don't go alone. With the wind from the northeast and east, it blows offshore and is dangerous: you'll be pushed off the beach onto open water (no-go).
