I thought these were old school tricks from 10 years ago that any current pro can do? Like board offs, always Hooked in.

Breh, does this mean I need to ditch my boots and buy a hybrid board?
I guess old school is hella hot right now.

Re: The future of kiteboarding
you know, every few sessions, i'll swap boards with someone who wants to try bindings...and the first thing I do when riding their strap board, is do a one-footer or board off.
man, those things are SO fun!
i don't really understand why nobody does them? especially the folks in straps, you really have no excuse.

The future of kiteboarding
Next time I jump, I'll do a board off but it will be a board off only. The on part will be after I've crashed in the water.

Re: The future of kiteboarding
I was of course being sarcastic when I posted this. That being said, I worked on board offs for so long and can land a kite loop to blind more often than a good board off. So yeah I think these tricks are pretty hard, the jesus walks are particularly cool. The video on the other hand is about as cheese dick as i've ever seen. I vomited a little in my mouth every time a word came up on screen. "Its all about...........Variation.............." Yes it is Toby, Yes it is.

Re: The future of kiteboarding
IT'S ABOUT... CHEESE DICK.
Don't be so rough on him. Who cares if his taste in music and editing style is "different" (ok, that was a nice way of saying cheese dick). The video is badass regardless. Some day I might be able to do one part of ONE of those tricks. :shock:

I thinks it's great stuff but I agree those "it's about..." breaks in the video need to go away. Otherwise Keep up the good work Toby and thanks for sharing with us!
