I hate to complain about something that they put out for free but the camera work is just way to hurky jerky. Plus they were constantly zooming in and out. I felt like I was going to get motion sickness trying to watch it.:megan: Also, there was really a lack of good kiting footage and way to much footage of people driving around in cars, etc. The kite surfing that they showed near the beginning was especially weak.

The interviews about that Red Bull commercial were kind of interesting but rather than watching guys talk to the camera I would have loved to see more footage while the guys talked over it or narrated. I suppose that they probably couldn't actually get whoever owns the footage to release it but it would have really improved the segment.

In general I feel like kiting footage is often over-edited. Sometimes they cut from trick to trick so fast that they barely show them taking off or landing the trick. Just people spinning through the air. This probably makes me sound old but it would be nice to see some extending footage of some top level riders.

I have to agree with KiteNH on this one. I really liked the first two episodes and I'm a fan in general but this was the most weak episode in terms of kiting for all the reasons KiteNH mentions.

I know they can't all be great and taste is subjective and I certainly don't want them to stop but it could have been better.
