Fun Kite Episode:
So today when I woke up I saw all the snow in London got and I started to become excited because it was supposed to be very windy today! I really wanted to have another go at using my skis but then I remembered that my sister has been borrowing them for a week now and will still have them for another week. When I lent them to her there wasn't supposed to be snow for another few weeks. Anyway, I was bummed But I decided to go out anyway.,but without skis. Man was it ever windy!!!! 30km/h with gusts of 45 that was crazy! I jumped easy 4 feet and I was surprised at first but then I got used to it and had a blast jumping so high. hopefully I'll get my skis back soon to keep it up on skis. I stopped after about half an hour though because I don't have a harness and my arms were beat! Plus i was getting really dirty..,.,.,.... I fly in a farmers field so unfortunately the ground was quite frozen under the snow. When I landed a few time I'd slip or fall on my back and now my coat it all muddy and the kite is too a bit.
I had a close call with my kite bag too. I usually unpack the kite and then weigh down the bag with snow..,.,.no, too windy today....It blew away and when I packed up I couldn't find it.,.,Crap!! so I put the kite in my car and drove downwind to the end of the field where there's a bunch of trees.,.,.,.,,.luckily I found it in a tree.,,..,so all is well.

Cutting the Curve:
Dear Paul,
As you are well aware, I am thrilled with your professional and personal approach to kiteboarding instruction. In addition to having become a close personal friend you have introduced me to a sport that has most defenetly enriched my life. It goes well beyond helping some sports enthusiasts to learn the secrets of kiteboarding more quickly.
As an avid snowboarder and extreme athlete, I assumed your instruction would facilitate my learning this sport. Well it certainly did. But what impressed me most with the learning curve in kiteboarding is how treacherous this new sport can be to both amateur and pros alike.
I feel that all newbies should take lessons from a certified instructor for one incredibly important reason: you are putting your life and the lives of other people on the line if you are not vigilant with regards to the various safety aspects of kiteboarding. Kiting enthusiasts should all read the horrifying stories of kiting nightmares.
Anyone who chooses Paul as their instructor will vastly accelerate their knowledge... far more than with just kiting videos or advice from friends. I know from personal experience that this is not only money extremely well spent but time well invested in a sport that will bring many unimaginably great rewards.
Regards,
Jason M
