The safety leash is, an should be starndard..Toby wrote:I nor a helmet or impact vest.
Is this acceptable from an organisation which promotes or stands for safe instructions and riding?
Not for me. I think it is a shame.
Any rep around who could take a stand?

I don't care whatever you or anyone else wear to protect yourself, as long as others are protected. This is everyones own judgement.
But IKO plays a big role in teaching in a safe way. They even want all IKO intructors to wear helmets and vests during teaching and during off time.
So understand the doubts this title of a book brings with it, if they, who should be the primary once, publish their book with a picture like this.
Well Toby,Toby wrote:fo, you are completly right.
That is a problem.
How can we solve it?
Maybe IKO or the instructor or whoever should give out the book for free with a course.
e.g. that could be a positive thing for BEST if they give out a free copy with every kite purchase to newbees (or anyone). Or maybe an instructional DVD.
How about a list of relevant websites with every kite for the newbee to read more about risks and tps to avoid problems and accidents?
Or a license without you can't buy a kite? But then we are back to "organistaions=businesses" who give out licnses as long as someone pays.
What to do?

...Toby, when you buy a new car did they give you a little book called ''how to drive''?e.g. that could be a positive thing for BEST if they give out a free copy with every kite purchase to newbees (or anyone). Or maybe an instructional DVD.
