Yeah, keep me in the loop... I'm at Parkdale and just getting up on the board now. I've done a few lessons and now got my own gear, so I'm just trying to get a bit of practice in before I do my last lesson. Got a bit on at the moment, but let me know if you're meeting up and I'll try and get along... Cheers.

It was nice down at Inverloch yesterday. Wind came up nicely in the arvo was perfectly powered - just a pity I had to leave at 3. It's nice kiting in clean water and it was not crowded.
Joel, Mr Float is right, best way to get the correct advice you need 1 on 1 is with another lesson. If you are comfortable launching, flying, landing your kite and bodydragging, then another lesson will be able to concentrate on getting you up on the board and show you the correct technique and tell you exactly what you are doing wrong. It would help you progress faster. Also, have you looked at any instructional DVD's? They can help a lot.
Jen at Zepher is the person to contact in Inverloch, if you want someone in Melbourne PM me and I'll give you a contact. Good luck. Where do you kite in Melbourne? I'm hoping to be out Fri, Sat & Sun arvo's if the forecast comes good. Usually Brighton, sometimes St Kilda.
