I had two lessons and was thinking of giving up because I just could not control this thing, and my instructor wants me to bodydrag in my next lesson. Thank you

Great video! After my first 2 lessons, your explanations and pov shots really help understand everything I encountered 👍🏻

you should make a video on how to save another kitesurfers board from drifting away. Have been in several situations, where someone has lost a board from crashing and I don't have the right technique for picking up the board while kitesurfing.

Hi Laurits, that is an important skill. I recently made a tutorial about exactly that: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/d8yAh9dzm9O8j4E.html

Nice video. Ive been wakeboarding all my life and no way and i wasting time paying for lessons. Watching this in the airport. Pretty sure i got it. Will find out tomorrow

@kitesurfcollege 11 ай бұрын

Hi, wakeboarding skill won't help you fly a kite - it may even make you slightly worse at it. If you're not taking lessons start with a 1 or 2m2 kite in very little wind far, far away from any people or hazards. Have a look at this for more info: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ha6ZnpVhsq_RdJc.html

Hello PAX I'll add the link for becoming a channel member. kzfaq.info/love/2AvhQhxmgRpM32IYE5qkOAjoin Also on my channel home page there should be a JOIN button near the top. If that doesn't work there are unfortunately a few countries where the memberships system is not yet available. Where are you based?

@Kitesurf College (Kite Surf Wing & Foil Tutorials) Thanks. I'm in England. I would also like to buy kite surfing gear cause I'm literally clueless. Do you have any recommendations?

@kitesurfcollege Жыл бұрын

@@pax263 no problem, I don't have a shop but I'm happy to advise. How heavy are you and do you have anything you specifically want to get out of kiting (riding waves, jumping etc)?
