"I'll be fine, I have kitesurfing experience."
How did those two survive long enough to get paragliding experience?!
I had skateboard, ski, snowboard, water ski, sailing, windsurfing, power kiting and land boarding experience and I still benefited from lessons.

I though that we already heard it all, but today, maybe not surprising, I got this one:
- "You're holding the kite in the wrong direction ! "
- me: "How come?"
- " Look, I'm a skipper and I was an Air Traffic Controller and I'm telling you it's the wrong side"
