Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Unfortunately with myself in China and Will away in Brazil our plans for daily video updates got a little scuppered! But I’m back now and here’s several videos to get you all amped for whatever wind is heading in you direction over the next few days.

First up we have the next two parts of the Jame Boulding Interview, following on Part 1 two weeks ago:

Part 2: James explains about adding Shifty tweaks to your unhooked tricks
Part 3: Some insight into the Pros & Cons of riding with bindings

    Then we have half a dozen trick definition videos:

    Back Roll Transition with a Hand Plant
    Back Roll Transition with a Mute Grab
    Back Roll Transition with a Lien Grab
    Back Roll to Toeside (Unhooked)
    Shifty Back Roll
    Front 2 Wrapped

      Next up with bit another batch of grabs for both powered and sent jumps.

      Blackpool BKSA Kiteival Event

      Thursday, August 27th, 2009

      A few of us here are going up to the BKSA event in Blackpool this bank holiday. Of course we plan to get some kiting in if possible but our main reason for heading 6 hours north will be to interview as many people as possible, from pro riders, to leading BKSA coaches and the local amateurs too. If there is anything you want us to ask riders about their own learning experiences, inspiration and tips then let us know and we’ll put it to them.

      Check out our blog / website next week for some of the videos and interviews.  We’ll be tweeting our way through the weekend too so follow us to see Progressions’ take on the event!
