he was flying the 15m Slingshot Rev 2...................winds were lightish 12 to 15 mph but he was popping some nice transitional kite loops............
Nate has a serious skill set along with a really sweet kite...................we were out 4 hours yesterday and he has alot more footage. Im sure he'll put something else together..........................

Excellent Vid. Great perspective. I like the other vids on the page as well. You make the winter look warm and comfy in the bright sunshine.

I am very pleased to announce that Nathan Leech is signed on with Coastal Wind Sports as a Team Rider, joining Bobby and Wexler Muse and Chad Golden (Phreerider). Following a session with 5-time World Champion Arron Hadlow last summer, Nate has a keen interest in Flexifoil Tube kites and has a 13 m Hadlow Pro C-kite and bar on the way to him now from the UK.

Flexifoil owner Anthony VanDort is thrilled with the news and is working to get the kite over here asap since they are temporarily out of stock in the USA.

Just a few years into the sport, Nathan has progressed quickly and is now looking to "push the envelope" as he says, and has a special interest in strapless riding. Nathan will be working the Charleston, SC kiting scene while he continues with graduate studies.

Like his dad, Don "Tridude", he has a strong will-do, try-anything attitude (well maybe less of the attitude :spin: :singing: ), balanced by cool nerves and good judgment. I think it comes out in his great vids.

Thanks Nate and looking forward to more good vids!

Congrats Nate and welcome to the CWS family. You bring a lot to the party. I can't wait to see how you rock those Hadlows.

Thank you Angus for giving me the opportunity to ride for Coastal Wind Sports and sport some sweet Flexi gear!

See you all at JIBE!!!

Though the video is quite short. It is still awesome. I hope you can put all together your kite surfing footage. That would be great.:)
