Future of kiting- 11yr old on atb
Here is my son andrew riding at salem. He is underpowered on a 2m scout - but it is what he is the most comfortable flying and you can see his
ability to really work the kite. Also added some polishing touches to this video. Music is Frog Holler.

Nice riding. He will come right along with it. I was impressed with his kite flying skills. I've seen adults that didn't have that much control.
Have you had him on the apex yet?

Bob- Hehas flown the apex once but is more freaked by the size so has a tendency to put the 2m or 4 m scout up instead. We are working on it, i
think that since he is now flying always hooked in that he will start getting more comfortable and start on the apex soon. I need to get hom near the
beach in some cleaner winds and he will be all over it i think.
