The question
 

I think the queston was does any one know Roberto. 1 answer an everyone else start to drive the new rider to someone else (your favorites). Like Big R said, Roberto is an excelent instructor. Very well known and recomend. Quit hating!

Roberto has been teaching longer than many of the instructors in this area (except for one or two who have not been mentioned). He teaches all over the world... Vietnam, Brazil, etc, and was teaching wind surfing long before he started kiting. As far as I know he's never had an accident with a student, and he is a decent patient guy and spends a lot of time discussing safety.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for lessons.

Don't be so sensitive on a public forum :)

The actual question was not does anyone know him, it was actually "Any thoughs"

The lady who posted, removed her post because Roberto asked her to-so it doesn't hurt his "business". I heard her and her husband's story, and it was not a good experience at all for them-her main concerns were safety and professionalism.

After 3 seasons of problems from 1 individual, a lot of us are tired of it.
Roberto, please straighten up your act and work on your beach-side friendly factor, or find another place to teach.(Michigan? Keys? SPI?) oops:(

This season has been monumental for cooperation among 98% of local instructors and schools, and working together has allowed more students to learn safely and quickly than ever before. We hope this trend continues for many seasons to come.
Kite safe friendly kiters;)

Yes...I must admit it is cool to see that a strong majority of the instructors are working together as one large team to create safe kiters and do it in a timely manner.

People want to get out there, and if the learning process gets drawn out, they are gonna get out there anyway....training or not.

Sounds corny but I am going to say it anyway.....
