Can you make a video how to ride in very choppy water ? Thanks , Nothing is available on the KZbin

[@tbsniper8052]

Top edger 🥶🥶🥶

[@gethighwithmike]

Unstoppable 😌

[@picolascage-bg5wg]

I've been looking for a guide to edging for a while now, and this is by far the best one. Thank you for teaching me how to properly edge! I love edging now!

[@IsaacHND]

bro 💀💀

[@Ian.Fennell]

If you search for it this video comes up and the thumbnail bro. "How to edge like a pro"

[@MatDGVLL]

14:50 most underrated advice ever 👑

[@thomasxbr1411]

Thanks, Mike! I'm the edging master now

[@gethighwithmike]

Yeeeah that's how we roll Thomas 🚀💪

[@powerlooper9121]

I edge like a mofo both heel and toeside, because that's all I do - and power loop carving. Sometimes I put the wingtip of my kite in the water. But I've designed and built special boards that allow for waaay more control. Most kiters don't fly their kites low enough. Great video btw.

[@KitesurfingOfficial]

10/10 Quality 🔥

[@gethighwithmike]

Thank you bro 🙏

[@user-co9xd7ur6l]

That was such a good video. Thanks for putting this entertaining and informative high-value video together so we can all improve and have more fun on the water. You, sir, are a gem!

[@gethighwithmike]

Thank you for watching and for the lovely comment!

[@NoNameSkejter]

This is the best tutorial I've seen not only edgidng but jumping overall . And since I am perfectionist I've seen lots of them. Helped me understand it even better.

[@adamc4155]

It stood out to me when you said for the advanced riders not to turn too upwind and kill your speed!! In the beginning as well when you talked about keeping the board between me and the kite! I only took 2 lessons at 3 hours each and afterwards bought all my gear and have been learning from friends and KZbin videos and watching this video again has revealed alot more that I didn't understand to begin with! Thanks for the great content!

[@kxrem10]

Thank you so much this video helped me a lot now I understand edging!

[@thesnowboardscientist3587]

I found your channel a little too late! I'm going on an Egypt kite safari in early September, but absolutely love that your trip includes video analysis and learning theory. I can already tell by your KZbin videos that the quality of teaching at your clinics is excellent. Maybe I'll join next year! :)

[@MissLollypop996]

This video finally explains sooo many questions for a kitesurfing beginner such as myself! Thank you so much, I will rewatch this video before every session in the near future 👏🏻🤗

[@POLEMOCO]

Thanks

[@marcusjohnstone6561]

Hey Mike, brilliant breakdown, best advice and explanation I have seen. The explanation is so important because we learn what we understand. I’m now saving for a cruise.

[@gonzaloportas9325]

Amazing video, damm PROFESSIONAL!!!! Thank you for the knoweldge, soon might join you in the yacht plan ;)

[@mmnnmt]

One of the best kiting videos I've watched. Fantastic. I'll have to watch it several times to get the most out of it, but it's exactly what I need. Well done Mike, team and thank you.

[@xXinsaneboyXx]

This is it, this is THE video for every beginner kite-surfer out there.

[@piotrekjaworski8626]

[@andrzejburnat5380]

Hi. It is the best explanations of edging I ever heard 👍👋. Thanks

[@markpaffrath8422]

Great video. Thanks. Couldn't figure out what i was doing wrong. This helped

[@chrislewis89]

One of your best videos, so stoked to see more videos like this! Would love some tips on how to apply this in gnarly chop, or chop / swell that is moving in the worst direction for takeoffs.

[@vituasss]

Amazing content - thanks for the effort putting it together!!

[@gethighwithmike]

My pleasure! Thanks for watching! :D

[@web1234bw]

[@the_knutzer1208]

Best edging video out there!!! 🔥😁

[@gethighwithmike]

Thanks so much!

[@Titouan.Sylvestre26]

I was waiting for this video since "take off like a pro", I wasn't able to jump higher than 10m at this time. Today I got 25m+ PR thanks to your videos, on my way to the 30m club. Thanks again for all your job 🤙🔥

[@gethighwithmike]

YIIIHAAAA that's massive! Great work! I'm stoked that my videos are helping out :D

[@SteveHofsaess]

where was the location,, which kite size,, very impressive

[@Titouan.Sylvestre26]

@@SteveHofsaess it was in north of France near to Wissant the spot is called "La pointe aux Oies" je with a 7m Vantage vulture gen3 🚀 thanks 🔥

[@SteveHofsaess]

@@Titouan.Sylvestre26 You are gifted, very few people jump 25meter,, I am still at 10m at that is high

[@danilabagrov7151]

Sick content for mad cannon jumps!!! Mike, thnks vm🤙🤝

[@gethighwithmike]

Thanks for watching

[@skywarrior1122]

Mike you kick ass on breakdown and delivery THIS IS GOLDEN ! Best yet bro keep it coming

[@gethighwithmike]

Thanks bro!

[@vinifons]

Thanks GOD you touched on the Downwind before takeoff bit. There are COACHES here in Brazil teaching this 🤦🏽‍♂️🙈🙉

[@tsalaam]

Amazing video fam! I really got a lot out of revising the concepts. The visuals really helped me to think about something I’ve been doing for years in a completely different manner. Lately, I’ve stared to get a ton of foot pain/soreness from edging in general. Do you have any tips for how to manage/avoid this?

[@Habixus]

Thanks for this brilliant video! Whenever I get asked how jumping works "exactly", I'm struggling due to lack of good animations, pictures etc. Now I'll use timestamps from this video to explain things more easily 👍👌🤙

[@alexandrebinard5238]

thank you verry mutch !!!!! incredible video !!!!

[@gethighwithmike]

Thank you for the great feedback!

[@jawaji.]

Nice vid

[@ivodupal3607]

Thank you very much for this tutorial.... cos i found myself doing some things right but I didnt know to name them exactly, some things i have been doing wrong so now i can tidy it up in my head :😁👍👍..with depower or trim there is always a lot of talk,..the best is to try and see 👍

[@filipelb93]

The best kite vídeo ive watched by far

[@gethighwithmike]

Thank you!!!

[@iz5772]

As a begginer, this clip made me go upwing on the 2nd session after the course (didn't even stood on the board.). It made me realize and understand many concepts in no time. You're an amazing teacher, and should make this a "begginer to pro" series.

[@philmarch171]

Great video Mike. Love the combination of practical kiter knowledge with great physics theory. I was a physics major in college and your descriptions are spot on! One question, though, about taking off when riding faster: I'm having a lot of trouble with the load and pop using this method. About half the time when I try to launch, I end up dragging across the water. It may be the chop or the higher speed using your technique. As I send the kite I will often drag downwind. Maybe riding too fast in chop...? Thanks again for a great video!

[@mathansen]

Really helpful video. I especially enjoyed the "being grateful for the amazing sport we are doing" - so true! Thank you!

[@gethighwithmike]

Thanks Mat 🫶🤘

[@adsertheblade]

Mike, with this video, you turned my overpriced low wind kite holiday into an awesome time. I had to watch it several times to get to grips with the subtleties, and i probably still have loads of work to do, but i started off with endless walks of shame and within a day, upwinding better than the kid i was insanely jelous of the day before. Not had much oportunity to test it with big jumps yet, but i imagine it will have a nice impact on those too. If only i could afford your luxury sessions, i imagine the progress would be out of this world. Still, I'll take these videos for now. Thanks for takimg the time to share your knowledge.

[@surfa05]

Great video!!!😊😊😊😊

[@gethighwithmike]

Thank you 🤗

[@bassemelfeky1465]

Thanks dear, I get dragged down wind cos i don’t edge and now I see how to improve

[@markusc7913]

Hi Mike, after looking this video 2 times I could improve my maximum edge from 60 to 65 degrees in the next session. 🙂 Thank you so much 👌
