Just wondering what teachers taught you, and if you found them to be a good teacher... etc??

I had Lynita Howie (Caution Kites), and she was really good.. ;)

just wondering on your opinion/s and what you think etc.... just so I know for future reference... cheers

Hope the weather and winds picks up...

Colour sucks!

I also teach in Brisbane at Brighton mainly and so does Jason from briskites.
I do get negative feedback from students who have been elsewhere but at the end of the day I believe we all do a good job but I can't really comment on Nigel as I haven't seen him in action.
In general, I think we in Brisbane have better contact/quality with the students than other places in SE Qld.
I do from time to time see lessons being done in questionable weather conditions which is a concern.
I use Liquid Force and Best Kites and all of which are available for demo anytime by anyone - just ask.
An interesting point an ex student raised with me the other day was how many people continue on with the sport after lessons. Maybe this is a good indication of how the lessons went?

I once saw an IKO instructor down near lake ainsworth teaching a complete newbie how to fly a kite (by handing them the bar), in gusty 20-30kt winds, flying a 10m with a pulley bar, on the hard packed sand near the water!!!

I later heard that there was some controversy, this person was teaching down there due to having a very bad rep and not being welcome any closer to byron..
