Open Clinic Series!
Tue, 08/04/2009 - 11:15
Hi all new kiters,
I am assuming that most of you have taken lessons but there is always still something you can't quite get or haven't been able to figure out yet or that you feel you may need just some supervision. I have held many successful open clinics in the past and am willing to do more. Last year I put together a series of open clinics that were a success and designed for those looking to do something specific without scheduling a full lesson again. Last year I covered the following subjects based on demand:
1) Riding upwind and stance related riding.
2) Water relaunch and self rescue.
3) Transitioning without loosing upwind gains.
4) Jumping and easy beginners tricks
5) Body dragging 101
If you can think of anything you might want to add just post it and I will try and add it to the the series based on interest and response.

Hey Dave,
If you need a head
Hey Dave,
If you need a head count before you commit to putting this together, count me in.
Ward.
I think the first clinic will be on riding upwind and stance related riding. Since this is the most popular subject I think this will be the first of the series. I'm thinking possibly Friday afternoon or Sunday.
The first part of the clinic is land based and will require your own board (I'll have my board too). Of course bring your kites because you will need them for the water part of the clinic. The clinic will run based on the amount of partcipation. Cost....I'll get back to you on that or you can send me a PM. Just want to observe and respect the rules of the forum.
Skipper
