Getting Started ...
Quote:
Like basic airplane manuvering the "mechanics" of kiteboarding can be fairly simplistic. That is unless something goes wrong, then it can become quite complex requiring some knowledge and experience. I would try to line up a good instructor. Roy Massey with aceperformer.com is based up in Ft. Meyers. Down closer to Tampa Bay you could get in touch with Eagle with tampabaykiteboarding.com . Some ideas in selecting an instructor appear at: http://fksa.org/viewtopic.php?t=174 Things to think about after initial lessons appear at: http://fksa.org/viewtopic.php?t=175 I would work on stretching, some good ideas on this have been prepared by a kiteboarding chiropracter and instructor. It used to be free but I see Joe has published a book. Still it is worth the investment I suspect at: http://www.kiteboardmexico.com/web/e...hang_loose.htm The training of your minds is the important part as I implied at the start. Instruction today may or may not cover some of this. Some things to checkout include: http://fksa.org/viewtopic.php?t=776 It seems that the majority of accidents MIGHT have been avoided or minimized if these ideas had been employed. Knowledge is power and go a long way to helping you to realize the fun of kiteboarding and potentially dodge the more ackward points. http://fksa.org/viewforum.php?f=81 Hard won lessons worth thinking about with more of the same in the KSI at: http://fksa.org/index.php?c=22 Have fun!
