Hi
has anyone heard of this learner dvd and book package? Its supposed to be a great way to learn and progress in the sport but ive not about it from anyone. Its called 'KITEs Method Secrets of Kiteboarding' and there is a link about it here:

just wondering if it may help me or not and be worth buying? Anyone tried it? What did u think?
Did u think as someone who has had 3 lessons and about 20 sessions in the water who can water start and going ok with the very basics on my preferred stance but really struggling with my non preferred stance do u think this will help me or is it just for those just starting to touch a kite for those very initial stages?

I'd Just buy Progression - Beginner or Intermediate...
It's only $49 each now - and its good stuff.
Altering Line lengths all the time and body dragging on top of your board isn't really going to help anyone - Especially if your up and riding on your good foot already.
Besides - It's marketed to Malaysia?

I agree, progression is great. Though, maybe you just need one hour of one on one tutoring, spend the money on that instead. To be honest, after 20 sessions you should be doing a bit better than what you are. You need to have someone tell you what you are doing wrong and how to fix it matey.

Hey, thanks guys for the info, i dont think i will get that book/dvd now, sound like it would not help anyway.....
I actually did not get the progression dvd have already bought a 5 dvd set from real kiteboarding, they are pretty good. I will find out if the progression ones have anything in them i might not have in the dvds i bought.
I am not sure if getting another one on one lesson is going to help me anymore lostinlondon, the instructors at the beach see me out there and dont think they can show me anymore, they said ive should just basically get out there and practice and the rest will come in time, ive had three one on one lessons already. I am getting upwind on my preferred stance, i am still a bit wobbly on my non preferred stance (though i actually did a little better today at the beach) and am told lessons will not help with that, just practice. Thanks for the guy who messaged me too, i think i will try and do some cable boarding on my kiteboard to get my non preferred stance up to scratch when i can get to qld. In the mean time i will check with the guys on the beach too and see if they can tell if i am doing anything wrong with my non preffered stance...
