Customer Reviews

Best Instructional out there!!
This has got to be THE BEST instructional Kitesurf DVD around. Checked out a few and this was the best by far...Its a great DVD if you are having kite lessons and need a refresher when you get home.. Well impressed! 5 out of 5!!

This DVDs a GEM!
I was taking kiteboard lessons late 2005 and was advised by my instructor that it would a good idea to get hold of a copy of this DVD to use as a reminder when I get home. He was right, it helped me improve so quickly.. Can't recomend it highly enough!!

Great beginner tutorial...
Bought a couple of American kite tutorial DVDs that, in the end, just taught me how to make stupid hand signals while shouting "YO! Duuuuude!". This DVD is nothing like that. It focuses on safety and each point is well explained with clear graphics. It really helped me get started. I can really recommend it to anyone new to the sport...
