Hey,
I'm very new to this epic sport. I've had one lesson where I learned the basics, can body drag upwind and all that. Due to work and where I live I haven't had time for my second lesson yet so I've been practicing myself - under the watchful eye of my extremely concerned father of course.
Anyhow my question is how do ye get up on that board? It's driving me mad, the hardest thing is to get my bloody feet into the bloody straps. Keep getting turned around by waves, next thing my board has been washed all the way back into the beach roughly how long does this first step take? I have this dream of kitesurfing with a Santa hat on Christmas Day haha. However once I do get this I can see myself getting pretty hooked pretty fast
