Matts teaching tequnices

I had the opportunity to take photos of our friends girlfriend getting a lesson from Matt. Laura not only did awesome in her lesson she made the pictures beautiful! We're hoping we can market this as an extra option to someone that would like their whole experience documented to share with family and friends. Thanks Laura!!!
Getting the trainer kite rolled out
Learning about the trainer kite and bar
Launching for the first time
Matt giving instructions on what he wants Laura to do
Time for the big kite
Learning how to hold the kite

Learning about the more intricate bar
Laura feeling what it is like to have all her weight on the harness not her arms like the trainer
Safety one let go of the bar
Safety two pop the chicken loop release
Safety three pop the leash release and let the kite go
Learning how to make a larks head knot to attach the bar to the kite
Matt showing Laura how to launch the kite
Now its Laura's turn

Matt using his kite instructor leash
Time to go body dragging through the water

In they go the water is a chilly 82 degrees

Off she goes!
