The New Standard

You already got called on it by some of the users here, is this another ad-pic? To date, you've pretty much only used this site and posted to promote your boat pole. It should have been posted in 'Industry Soapbox' anyway, to which it's moved to now. Kiteboarding is 80% kite-flying skills anyway, board skills come after kite-flying skills.

NICE
John nice pole, and nice boat check it how about a collaboration? beach em at my spot then go for a ride on the boat?

Yeah Royce,

I think something like that could work out. Maybe line up a Saturday when we could get a bunch of people lined up for a sesh. We'll have to chat some more about it,

Nice,

Capt John

I disagree on the 80% kite thing. If you arent comfortable on the board you cant focus on the kite as much. Although nothing will have an exact feel as a kite tuggin you around in all different directions, this is a very good start. Especially given the fact that it can be learned when there is NO wind. Give Jon a break guys. I am sure if business picks up he would be more than willing to pay for some ads.

?? I agree it should be in Industry Soapbox, but what is the diff betw posting KTB pics like he's doing vs all the kite demo pics and every time a new bar or kite is released, we are flooded with pics. Those are advertising but no one makes a stink about it.

Nice idea with the poll. When I learnt to kiteboard the thing that had the most impact on learning was one wakeboard lesson that I took after trying to get on the board a few times. It sorted it all out.
