Or here we don't go. It's borderline whether this unpaid advertising again or not, and if things go too far South threads will very quickly be locked or deleted, and certain members might have to have some time without access to their login to think about the kind of friendly, family oriented and commercially fair atmosphere we're trying to maintain here on the forums.

Just sayin'...

lol.
Not much to anyone who hasn't read threads started by Mr. Sanz before, I'm sure.
You're right about the length of it too, it is overly long. I've been reading legal documents all weekend, if that's any excuse.
As for advertising, I'm a bit dubious about the intent with which 'cool new toys' was posted.

Hope this helps you 'slavey.

Quit being the over zealous forum-nazi.
You're trying too hard to be pedantic and dictatorial.

I think you will find that the moderators are very moderate in our moderation. For example, I haven't moderated anything you've said for some months now Mr. Slave.

OK...Lets get this started....
I have seen this guy in fine form many a time in a negative way, whether it being teaching newbies to beach jump on the upward draft of Wanda dunes, teaching newbies on a 16m yarga 4 line 05-06???? when I was lite on my 10m, kiting down the footpath with a kite and lots of public around....and the list goes on etc etc........HOWEVER.... Live and let live........If he is ignored, he will find his own space to be......

Please listen Alex, I and many others would prefer if you didn't do your dodgy teaching, beach jumping stuff and other acts which could endanger our sport. These acts could possibly (and have) brought problems of access to our beaches and give Kiting a crappy name.

In saying that, we "As the ready to act, to name and shame public" should leave the guy to do what he wants(to a point). If he wants to shot his videos.....let him....you don't have to watch. If he wants to carry on about his new skite invention....let him...just don't read.......... If he wants to paraglide with a kite over the dunes of a packed beach full of people......remind him of the stupid act he is again doing....and name a shame him for these acts....

Put yourself in his position, we are all individual characters.....this sport seems to attract odd sort of people, like it or not. Some of us are just a little more different than others....

Again, Live and Let live.....Take all types to make up this world

tisk tisk,, no siding with Sanz here but that was a beach jump steve though sheeting in to see the wind stregnth is definatelt acceptable.

Why can't you just Fly your kites in a safe manner Alex?. Beach jumping and cruising the carpark on a land board/skate thingys is not a safe and responsible act no matter how good you are at flying a kite.
Use common sense and have respect for the public and im sure everyone wouldnt mind you so much.

Not trying to have a big go at you Alex but iv seen your vids and they do not potray kiteres in a positive way.

OT whats the story with the tree huging switchy?. Tough break for whos kite that was.

why do you worry so much about what I do??

I feel the same about the teaching method used by schools in Sydney Melbourne and Queensland. To me teaching people only to use inflatables and only on water going to kill the sport and get it banned from most places.

We all have our own opinions, I have been teaching more than most and have lots of experiance in the sport.

I am very busy with kitesports lessons, so what I teach works for me and my students.

Live and let live... I teach KITESPORTS NOT KITESURFING a totally different sport
so don't worry what I'm doing, I stopped worring about you guys a long time ago.

As for the videos, they are not about me, they are about the history of kitesurfing if you don't like them try to find other videos about Australian kitesurfing..

NOT MUCH OUT THERE !!
here is a video of Ben Wilson winning a comp in Queensland, I'm the only one with this footage and now you too can enjoy our rich history.


Lighten up on me guys !!! the whole world does not revolve around Alex sanz. Move on!!

I film what happens if it doesn't show kite in a good way how is that my fault??
Like I keep saying to you guys, the only people that complain is kitesurfers. I'm out every day with no complaints and I teach for the local councils, they love me!!

I have a lesson tomorrow helping problem children, you should see how excited they get when they see me and try out all my new sports. anyone else helping our children out there??? Also hace a big day with the local kurnell comunity event organized by the council

Whats the difference jumping on the edge of the beach ith an inflatable and a board and jumping on the beach with an inflatable and a mountain board?? or even without a mountain board??

My next new toy is totally going to spin you out, I can see the complaints building up as I type.

It's all about having fun, don't lose sight of that guys

why are you guys so worried about bans?

there are no official kite bans anywhere on the east coast.

I kite mostly in parks, so get off my back about bans on your beach that your problem not mine, I'm just one person an official ban would take lots more kitesurfers doing the wrong thing. And who has the authority to say what is actually wrong. I think kiteloops should be banned too dangerous!!

you guys should live in the real world..

Land boarding at Kirra is banned largely because of your actions. Interim bans are in place in Byron largely because of your actions.

What say you to this?? oh that's right you're banned.

Learn to follow rules. They are there for a reason.
