[marina c]

PODCAST #115:

This week, our live Thursday night podcasts start up again with special guest Mark Doyle, pro rider for Slingshot Sports. Mark will be joining host Ryan Riccitelli on the ASnews.net and The Kiteboarder Magazine podcast to help you with any problems you may be having with new moves and to talk about his new project where he plans on releasing over 100 online instructional videos to help you learn and land beginner to advanced tricks. He will also be discussing his recent ACL injury (yes those advanced tricks can have some serious consequences!) to possibly help you avoid a similar injury and what the injury entails. Mark has been traveling the world for the last seven years teaching and running clinics in the Gorge, Brazil, Japan and Texas. He just recently semi-settled down in Texas, where he is currently managing XL Kites newest location on South Padre Island.

Got a new trick that you’re having problems with or questions on how to potentially avoid an ACL injury like Mark just experienced? Ask your questions directly to Mark and get free, professional help from one of North America’s premier coaches.
