Re: Micro loop question

I'm looking to go air style, jumping high was one of the main attractions for me back when. However, I do not ride North kites nor North bars, and so I am troubled by how to set about converting my bars (Naish & Blade) for a micro loop. I will defo not go down the windsurfing loop route, as way too ...

Re: Epilepsy and Kiteboarding

Thanks Rick. I am, indeed, under the care of a very good doctor and (as I'm sure you'd expect) I now know far more about the condition than I did.

I have nocturnal seizures, wh...

Re: MOST SEXY KITE PICTURE

Re: Kiteboarding in the British Virgin Islands

If you want to kite your only option is to take your own gear. There are no kite schools or kite rental outlets on Tortola itself and when you get there you'll understand why. There is a kite school at BEYC, check them out on-line, but as far as I am aware they do not rent out kites. As it sounds li...
