online kite land boarding lessons ?
hi guys,
ive got my first mountain board on the way, and although im a fairly good static flyer i was wanting some lessons to show me the basics.
i really like the look of the 'progression kite land-boarding' lessons, its a dvd thing, and ive looked o youtube for stuff but i cant find anything
good and free, only one of the two.
do any of you know of any good free lessons that i could check out ?

Some of this applies to ground boards. Other than that, I think the normal recommendation for people is the Progression DVDs. I haven't watched them
myself, but I understand they're quite good. Don't know of anything kgb/atb specific that's free. Sorry.

From kitesboardsandbuggies.com (formerly racekites.com)
So you want to landboard?
Trick List
If you are near Camber in East Sussex, get on the www.kitesboardsandbuggies.com forum and sent a private message to eazyrider... he seems to have a standing offer to get people rolling.
That said, there's a lot to recommend the Fat Sands Progression Beginner Landboarding DVD. Most lessons are displayed multiple times from multiple
angles. Narrative descriptions of what is happening and why are fairly comprehensive. Probably the most brilliant aspect is that in a lot of cases,
the most common mistakes and how to avoid them are outlined.
Hope that helps.
ATB,
Sam

thanks for al the info, its really helpful. especially that site you said indigo_wolf.
(im not in sussex unfortunately. i might just hang around the beach, and wait for a friendly person to help me out.)
i think the progression dvd would be very good, but i dont have much money. at all. and im in the uk.
if anyone has one i could borrow, then i could get it back to them it would be apreciated.....
