Can You Practice Kiteboarding In Extreme Lightwinds? Under 8 kts

[@declancoady2549]

Thanks Anthony, great tips for us getting started

[@jdee4763]

Thanks Anthony, learnt alot (always forget stuff) but in under 7mins youve really taught us ALOT. Plus I like I have this bar lol

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

thank you!

[@kobrakaiFN]

Some great tips and excellent presentation, thanks!

[@royfigueroa9210]

Anthony, thanks for the tip. Now try doing the same thing 1/2 mile inside the open ocean please.

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

controlling environment is so important. I dont know why one would practice kite control 1/2 miles in open ocean. Sounds dangerous

[@BenjaminKovacic-g2t]

Love your videos

[@MichaelHalsted]

Thanks for the info! I needed this. Where is this launch area?

[@A-fl1ln]

Thank you

[@Caleres]

Amazing intro lol

[@pitterpit9964]

Still enjoying Lo Stagnone? :-)

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

back now but love that flat water!

[@kulas1087]

As an instructor this gave me lots of flachbacks

[@Maxigand]

And now repeat the same on the deep

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

With a foil? no problem

[@windaddicted]

Do that in 5 knoten please 😅

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

@@windaddicted it is 5 knots 😅

[@kiteaust]

Iko trained Kitesurfer will stick to inflatables ! I don't get it foil kites are so much better in light winds. You don't want an inflatable larger than 12m

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

I wouldnt identify myself as "IKO" trained but how do foil kites water relaunch in under 8 kts?

[@kiteaust]

@@KiteboardingStPetersburg foils relaunch in 5 knots ! Firstly they don't fall in the water nearly as much because they float down not fall like an inflatable

[@thekiteboatparty3568]

yeah that is not an IKO self rescue but its better than many ‘self rescue’ (birdnests) i’ve done and even if people remembered that they would be sweet. And while i love my flysurfers and foils, unless you are pro race foiler you wont want to be out in that little wind anyway so why not practice as he’s doing. Love the super light relaunch tip too.

[@vaudou74]

masochism = fly a LEI in very lightwind....when your buddy has its flysurfer standing at the zenith until 5 knts....and still flying in 4knts....

[@michaele.6771]

Das will ich auch sehen wenn er kein Grund unter den Füßen hat 😂

[@dunzjost]

Nobody can swim back like you are walking

[@kiteaust]

Inflatable just don't do light winds

[@klaarnou]

My grandmother can launch a kite while standing in shallow water.
Do that shit when you are in deep water.

[@KiteboardingStPetersburg]

We do lol
