Love that you show bloopers in the end and thanks for carving training tip.

Great Video in my opinion you are by far in the best instructional content creator out there. Love your channel thanks for all your hard work.👍

[MsPeppevic]

thanks for the very technical content but still exposed in a simple way

[nigahiga]

i'm not even working on jump transitions right now but those upwind carving tips are EXACTLY what i needed for my goals

[juliusznowakowicz]

the intro was a direct assault on Ruben Lentens tutorials from couple years ago. love it

[marcoboeckmann]

Top video! Explains exactly the trick, I was looking for.

[lucasdidier]

Super good tips! Looking to improve jumps, jump transitions, backrolls, downloops etc. and you're providing so many great tips and the visuals are super clear! Thanks a lot

[JetLee]

That intro was splendid, eager to start my kite journey

[supericeman]

Awesome tips Stephen. One interesting observation is on the backroll transition you are landing about 20 feet upwind of your previous line coming in which further explains the importance of a good pop and carving straight into the wind and releasing well upwind of your original course. Love your vids and see you again sometime 👍

[gBayCanada]

Another excellent video! Great progression tips. 👍👍

[philmarch]

Love your videos, Steven. Super clear and easy to follow. And you've GOT SOME SKILLS, my man!

Amazing tutorial Steven! 🤩 Love the attention to the details and the clear explanation. You are creating some of the best content out there! Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🤙

Excellent timing! Kiteboarding season is just around the corner in about 30 day! big thanks from here in Palawan, Philippines!!

I just love this trick and it is quite well explained. Looks stylish when it is seen from the beach. Gotta try the "with loop" and "with backroll" in my next session. Tx!

[robmacintyre]

Thanks, the kite positioning and particularly parking at 11.30 or 12.30 is the thing that had prevented me nailing this earlier in my kiting progression

[saulmelman]

TY for excellent videos ! We enjoyed your kiting (and said hello to you) at KP in PEI this past September.

[wolfgangmulder]

Perfekt erklärt, so wie immer. Habe schon viel von dir gelernt, danke 👍

[Plutoniummatt]

Your tuts are much appreciated my friend, hope you had a great time in Egypt, friend of mine attended your clinic there :)

[vinny]

Great tips, will need to try to hone my carve/takeoff, I think that's my issue with these. Also a big fan of bloopers/wipeouts, keep those coming if you have them.

[GaetanoCrisci]

Steven well done! the simple approach and the fact you are shoving us the basics are very appreciated, many take it for granted the first moves or the most basic things, this lead to difficult progressing with some doubts still blocking the understanding of many points
