Nick Russell Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I'm thrilled. We are staying at a campground 28 miles away and are due to leave on Monday, the 1st so this is perfect timing. Met John briefly at Seaside last summer when I got hooked on Revs, but have not had any luck getting it up in the air since then. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Russell Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 I learned so much today that I'm amazed. I'll be honest and say that even after watching all the videos and getting advice for several of you here it just wasn't clicking. Try as I might, I'd get the kite up a few feet and it would turn left and crash. I was completely discouraged and about to give up on the Rev and stick with my Prism speed foil. Within 15 minutes John had me flying and the three hour class left me with a lot more confidence and totally enthused about flying again. John is an incredibly patient and competent instructor who makes you feel comfortable and explains techniques in language the student can understand. If you ever get the chance to take a class with him do it. It's money and time well spent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makatakam Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Alright, Nick! Now you know, it's all perseverance and time on the handles. Stick with it. It will reveal itself in a series of plateaus, each one a new joy to be treasured. Sweet field, great view. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
