Kite Super Model Clarissa Hemple takes riders step by step through the most effective path from entry to expert riding! In the KITEs Method, there is no walking and no tea bagging. Riders start at the kite with out bar or lines and learn how to capture a center of energy, then counterbalance it. Instead of progressing to the waterstart, riders learn the revolutionary Upwind Board Drag (UBD). The use of the board as a planing surface allows riders to travel upwind long before they ever waterstart.
The book also details expert action, the Maui to Molokai crossing, Kite boating, Snowkiting and a never before areial look at Maui Kite Beaches. The book concludes with kite specific water, wind and terminology glossaries

Reviews:
"The best kite board book ever written..." says Mike Minichiello Owner Operator Kite House Miami. "This kiteboarding book, Bow Kites and Entry level line lengths make teaching a breeze. I cringe when I see guys try to teach and learn the traditional way." -- the Kite House Miami
"this kite instructional book takes kiteboarding instruction to a Zen level. I struggled with water starts for over a year. After working with the KITEs Method, I was performing multilple water starts the same day. I can not thank you enough for helping me to break on through to the other side. Darren R.
