I hope this video helped. PART 2 is available now to members of kitesurf college: kzhead.info/sun/f62EZ5WvaKGvn4k/bejne.html
Had my first lesson 2 days ago, and this video has been amazing at helping with my understanding of the sport. Very informative, thank you!
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
First kiteboard lesson tomorrow, thanks for the great video!
Great video! After my first 2 lessons, your explanations and pov shots really help understand everything I encountered 👍🏻
Starting over the series, good job, great thorough guiding explanations here, we are all support for The College!👍👍
Thanks very much
Nice easy to understand instructions! Thanks!
we are looking forward for the next video.well done!
Thanks Panos
great video, thank you!
Thanks for your video!
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: kzhead.info/sun/dMqJhNh6bZ-OkoU/bejne.html
Yes. Remote cut the line. Set the person free.
Excellent!
Thanks very much Leandro
Thanks you so much🙏
Hey nice video, do you want those wing foil clips for foot swaps
Hi, thanks and yes please - I would definitely like to see them. Hopefully that footage can help other people improve. Feel free to email me kitesurfco@gmail.com
niice!
Great
How much it costs to learn it?
Why do you repeat everything for both sides?
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
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: kzhead.info/sun/gqyim5ZohHujd5s/bejne.html
Your in for a rude awakening

Hello PAX I'll add the link for becoming a channel member. kzhead.info/tools/2AvhQhxmgRpM32IYE5qkOA.htmljoin 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?
@@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)?
First kiteboard lesson tomorrow, thanks for the great video!
how did it go?
@@GV77777 Was awesome! Ended up taking 7-8 lessions,, can do all the skills needed to be independent!
@@victorbeysmith that’s great! I started powerlifting on land but this already has my interest. maybe i’ll try it out in the future sometime
