Excellent explanation. I really apprecciate your effort into making these tutorials. Most people don't realize how time consuming is to make a few minutes edited video explanation. All the BEST for you Alex.
Dude, your videos are perfect. Easily the most detailed videos. I love the animations which makes everything very clear.
Thankyou. We try to make these as informative as possible.
For a beginner like me it is never enough to watch your playlist...for the third time...to refresh what i learnt and now in practice so far. And dont forget the good tips you give in the vids.
Alex - huge fan of your detailed work. Haven’t seen anything better out there. You rock dude.
Cheers Jimmy
I’m just about to start learning, your clear tutorials make it all very easy to understand.
Thanks so much
Time travel finally figured out @2:22 when pulling the trim line, time reverses... *mind blown* (I kid you of course... great videos, very well done)
Effort is much appriciated! Can't tell how much helped me understand how kite works.
Waauw! I decided to go kite surfing last week and checking youtube since, this video explains "the core" so clearly, i want to gather as many info as possible before i actually go and start my lessons, i think theory is as important than good and safe practice before i go out on the water thank you so much and keep up this magnificent videos.
I have been flying 2 line kits for years. I have a 4 line kite now, but need lines and a bar/ handles. I have been watching videos about trimming for along time. Your video was one of the best I have seen. Even though I knew what you were talking about, it was great to see your video too. Thanks .....
I love the effort you put into the making of these videos.
I have been kiting since flexifoil stacker days in the late 90's and have always wished for such comprehensive videos to show people entering the sport.
Many thanks!
Thankyou and I'm glad you like them.

1:54 This is particularly problematic for people coming from a windsurfing background. This is because experienced windsurfers reflexively hold onto the boom (especially with the hand closest to the mast) when a crash is imminent. This is because, otherwise they stand a good chance of getting whacked by the boom or mast. Better to keep it in a known position relative to the body. However, in kitesurfing, you are likely to be much better off completely letting go of the bar. The kite is almost guaranteed to fly better without your input. With a bit of luck it will climb all by itself to the apex. Worst case, it will dive down and hit the water. But only with moderate force. Gripping the bar greatly increases your chances of tomahawking it into the water or looping it first then tomahawking.
I really wish someone had explained this to me when I was learning. IT IS OK TO LET GO OF THE BAR !
I love this video
Easily the highest quality kiteboarding instructional videos available anywhere - including paid content.
Love this, very clear! Your also not a sepo which helps. Pip pip!
Thank you very very much
I just wish my instructor had been as clear and concise as these videos. Unfortunately, I had to learnt it myself after backstalling my kites many times.
Same here, I used to set my kite for power is light winds, the kite would back stall into the center of the wind window then RIP down wind taking me with it. I learned the hard way I do appreciate these tutorials! Very clearly explained.
I'm taking lessons (first timer) in 2 weeks. I'm thankful for these videos (and many on youtube) just in case I have an instructor that doesn't touch on a given point, or if a situation were to arise. At least there will be less theory discussion and for me, more hands on, even with a trainer kite.
nice !
i can change the depower range on the bar when i change the depower rope, should I just give it as much range as possible (within some limits of course) so I can access the full range on the bar instead of sometimes havung to land the kite to change the connection knots?
Did the light wind 3rd knot mistake today. Put it 9n max power and was wondering why the kite was stalling and not pulling at all, why normally the knot gives it extta pull.
Thank you
gooood job
Yoi are the best
Hi,
firsty, I have to say - your videos are great!
I have one question regarding trimming the kite when launching. I have 15m naish fly and I am trying to launch it in 6knots (gusts up to 15kt). My bar (also naish - the base one) has a below the bar trim, and when I’m connecting the lines I always have my trim fully extended, meaning full power. So my question is, when I am ready to launch should I shorten the trim a bit? What do you recommend?
Yes shorten the trim, especially in light wind otherwise you will create extra drag and slow the kite. When you push the bar out your steering lines should bow.

How to know which kite surf waist size to use? I live in a place where I can only buy it online, I am a 5.7 feet and weigh 132, wide hips but slim waist. Am I an small or medium? I use medium pants but small shirts, thank you
Hello Nuunu. Harnesses are very adjustable, so you could use either. I'd guess that small would be better overall. Good luck.
Instructions unclear, bathing suit laces caught in front line pigtails
Find yourself a sports bra before your next session and you'll be rocking.
Thank you turkish language
sorry I was concentrated on an amazing girl and missed the kite part video. After 10 times still can't see the kite
one error so one hand suppose to be on middle bar avoid death spiral for beginner :)
