Just wanted to say hey :D
Hi Everyone :D
I am brand spanking new to kitesurfing.... had 1 lesson that had to be cut short due to kite troubles so i will have to re-schedule :/ Can't wait though..... Took a 4m "trainer kite" for a fly the other day to get the feel of trying to control a kite as we didn't really even get that far at my last lesson and i ended up having my ass kicked by the trainer kite....face planted the ground, almost had my shoulder ripped from its socket and bust one of my fingers (i am VERY accident prone in general anyway so nothing new for me.... but i think i need a smaller trainer kite.....) hmm methinks i have a LOT of work ahead of myself lol.
Anyhoo sailor for many years, surf ski for fun and love the ocean in general ... have always watched kitesurfers for years in awe and never though i would be able to do it.... i suppose i was a bit scared too because of horror stories i have heard but hey what sport doesn't come with risks?Anyway i am completely ready to learn now anyway and cannot wait for that first time i manage to get up on a board :) Just wanted to say hey :D
p.s i live in Brisbane so will probably be looking for some people to KS with when i become a bit more coordinated haha.xo
