This is a video of myself taken at Chimi House in May of 2010.

Kiteboarding Video Archives

I have edited some old kiteboarding videos and posted on Youtube.
The first video was from the summer of 2005 when Don and I started to learn kiteboarding. We bought a Slingshot kite and tried our best to make it work on the Ottawa River at Constance Bay.


After going to Cape Hatteras in the fall of 2005 Don and I learned to ride properly and stay upwind. In the spring of 2006 I bought a quiver of Best Waroos (7m, 9m, 12m, 16m). Jamie and I kited in Cape Hatteras in the spring of 2006. The following two videos are really the first time we learned to jump. These videos were taken in Constance Bay in the summer of 2006.



This video includes Jon, Jamie, Don and Brooke. this was the first time that Brooke ever tried kiting.

Jamie Snow Kiteboarding Constance Bay

Jamie grabbed my snowboard and went for a ride on the nice powder on the river.
It is unbelievable how high he was boosting near the end of his session when the wind picked up and the visibility dropped.
