^^ We will have at least 4 of our National Team guys on hand to help me. Riders will be sorted into groups of similar skill and similar goals and coaches will be assigned to groups that best suit their coaching level as well.

Looks awesome, wish something like this would happen in NZ!

KSS Altona in Melbourne will be taking bookings from Sat 24th August.
Should be a great day with a BBQ and a few beers depending on the weather.

You can book by emailing me steve@kssaltona.com.au

We will have the full range of LF gear there too, so even if your not doing the clinic come down and demo the gear. Should be in store from the 26AUG.

If this makes it to Perth this year I'm keen. I've got a couple winches you can use as our cable park won't be up and running yet. May be able to muster a kicker and flat bar as well.

Winch and kickers don't really mix, but it's good that you have one at your disposal, you should drag it out for a kite session!

Hey Oceanfire, good question as I am sure more riders have the same question to ask. ( I replied to your pm) But basically we need riders to be past the beginner stage, that is you need to able to ride upwind, have enough kite control to launch/land and relaunch on your own and conduct self rescues if needed. We do not anticipate anyone will need to self rescue but it is an essential skill set of all kiters.

Most intermediate riders would be starting to jump, maybe try rolls and transitions etc

Hope this helps,

Chris

How much? How long does the class go for, what happens if there is no wind?

This clinic is scheduled for Altona Beach (Melbourne) at 11am til dark on the 8th of September, if you have not yet booked please make sure you get in and do this ASAP as there are only limited places. To make secure your place, please ring ML Watersports on 07 3889 9100 they will then pass on your details to me.

Looking forward to delivering high end coaching to assist in developing individual riders and the sport in general!

Best regards,

Hey Chris .. how is the WA clinic looking ?

Im keen on the Sydney session. Question: How many kiters is it limited to and how likely will it sell out?

Hey Monkers, it has been well received and getting plenty of interest, it is booked in and we will be there for sure. Working with Jason from WestOz Kiteboarding so if you would like you can discuss it further with him. It is early days thus far, but I am looking forward to getting back to WA, been so long for me!!

Cheers

Nice. Let us know dates when it comes to light. Ill be up in Singapore smashing the cable until the Perth seabreezes start.

The Sydney clinic on Sunday 6th Oct, 2013 is still scheduled as a goer!

There is every chance of northerlies filling in through the day. For all those who are booked in we will start at 11am and in the event that the wind is unrideable all day, we will look at rescheduling for the weekend of the 19th/20th Oct, 2013! In the event that we are waiting for wind, the coaches are well equipped to provide you with loads of tips and cognitive based learning experiences which do all help towards making you a better kiter!

If you have any concerns please call me direct on 0422 430430 or PM me, cheers,


Chris

Sundays Kaizen Clinic at Kurnell was a great day. The wind took its time to fill in, but it did and all those who attended were able to start putting the tips and direction into practice! With almost 20 participants in got a little crowded at times but I would like to thank all those who attended for their positive attitude and patience on the water!!

From the coaching team, myself, Declan and Kurtis would like to thank Alliance Gear for their amazing support and hospitality- thank you James and Milada. We would also like to thank each rider that attended as for these types of coaching events to happen requires the support of the kiters! It was awesome getting to meet everyone and I personally enjoyed watching you all try new things and sure take a few poundings but I also saw a great deal of improvement throughout the day!!

Looking forward to the next one, which is scheduled for the Sunshine Coast (Brisbane clinic scheduled for 16th Oct has been cancelled) on the weekend of the 2nd/3rd of November! (the day will be announced closer once we know the wind etc). We then will be taking the clinic series west with a stop in Adelaide and then Safety Bay, WA.

Thank you,

Chris Wardell
