Video was crystal clear for me, and very informative. I love practicing what I learn in your videos. Thank you from Aus.

Wow loads of great downwind insight here, "I'm going to go faster downwind already I know it" hah but really this was awesome, thank you.

How can you put out a teaching video when every second word is missing in the video. Sure it’s great but it’s unwatchable
