Hey Jake, I love your vids man. I wish you'd post more often but I know it's not easy. I would love to see you do a series such as "Trick Tuesday". Maybe you could teach one trick each Tuesday. If there's no wind to make a trick vid, you could take an old clip of a trick and break it down and talk us through it. Anyway, I'm going kiting tomorrow in Cape Town South Africa and re-watching some of your older vids for inspiration. Cheers man!

Great video. Thanks. I only get out a couple times a year when I head back to Bonaire. I’m not a huge fan of kiting our lakes in Dallas because of too many wind shadows, I don’t float in fresh water (even with a vest), and too much boat traffic. When we left Bonaire in October I was learning upwind kiting, so hopefully I can try some of this soon.

God has said in the Quran: { O mankind, worship your Lord, who created you and those before you, that you may become righteous - ( 2:21 ) [He] who made for you the earth a bed [spread out] and the sky a ceiling and sent down from the sky, rain and brought forth thereby fruits as provision for you. So do not attribute to Allah equals while you know [that there is nothing similar to Him]. ( 2:22 ) And if you are in doubt about what We have sent down upon Our Servant [Muhammad], then produce a surah the like thereof and call upon your witnesses other than Allah, if you should be truthful. ( 2:23 ) But if you do not - and you will never be able to - then fear the Fire, whose fuel is men and stones, prepared for the disbelievers.( 2:24 ) And give good tidings to those who believe and do righteous deeds that they will have gardens [in Paradise] beneath which rivers flow. Whenever they are provided with a provision of fruit therefrom, they will say, "This is what we were provided with before." And it is given to them in likeness. And they will have therein purified spouses, and they will abide therein eternally. ( 2:25 ) Quran

You don't put enough weight on your toes so you ride towards the kite. That decreases the apparent wind so you lose speed and sink

I really like your video series. Interesting. But for many of us who are still in the beginner-humiliation phase can I suggest you break down the skills into more discrete info? For you its "boom, boom, boom" easy ..... but a bit more specific slow-mo video and description of exactly what you're doing would be quite helpful. Get someone else to video you? Show and tell us how you're coordinating the kite and your body position? Thanks!

Awesome Video! Thanks for breaking it down easy! Interested in a video on getting started! I've watched a lot of videos with the basic training steps (learn the basics of setting up the kite, getting in the water, emergency recover board etc etc) but would love a video on doing kiteboarding on your own. Everyone talks about having a partner which is great, but perhaps have a video on doing with a partner even if your partner has never kite boarded before. I've wakeboarded a bunch, and am taking in these videos before I jump on a kite board. But for someone who is looking to avoid a "lesson" and simply get in the water and figure it out quickly- would love any tips! Thanks for this video and others!

If you're a beginner, you normally can't do "tricks". In true sports, that's for the advanced or even expert level. So this must truly be a kids' sport.
