The video, introduced by Keta Films and produced by Erin N. Calmes, starts with learning to fly the trainer kite and ends with staying up wind. As major steps are explained over and over again, top kitegirls Julie Gilbert-Prochaska (photo) and Bri Cheml act as your hosts during the 40 minutes show. The agenda for school girls: how to set up and fly a trainer kite; how to set up, launch, and fly the inflatable kite safely; riding the board and staying upwind; and of course: landing safely. Excellent: The video delivers the needed confidence to learn the sport. It focuses on important safety issues also and provides plenty of kiteboarding action from the pros. Highlighting beautiful ripping women like Nina Heiberg, Rebeca Wolthers, Sheldon Plentovich, Dana Pinto, Fabienne Dortoli, Jody Taliaferro, Erin N. Calmes, Jeanne Rust, Rondi Ballard and others with great action footage from spots such as Maui, Oahu or Mexico. If you want to learn kiteboarding go & buy it. If your boyfriend wants to learn the sport go and buy it. But please keep in mind that the video is just an additional instruction and can by no means replace a professional kitesurfing clinic. And what did we learn from it? Kitegirls are windgirls. And we are all school girls. At least from time to time. Check out the promo video here!
