New Video Interview – Dan Sweeney

Monday, October 5th, 2009

Another week another Progression interview! This time we caught up with Dan Sweeney at his local beach to have a chat about the tricks he is currently working on and we got some great insight into the steady progression from a raley up to one of Dan’s latest tricks, the S-Bend Pass.

And for those of you who don’t know Dan, he’s one of the UK’s best up and coming riders, currently leading the Junior category at the BKSA national tour. Definitely a rider to watch out for in the future!

We had a chat with him at the Blackpool event, finding out about his influences from wakeboarding, how he learns new tricks, what he does to stay motivated and not get bored doing the same tricks, how important it is to kite with his friends along with loads of other interesting points which will hopefully give you some inspiration to get there and go kitesurfing.

More interviews are coming over the next couple of weeks with Tom Court, Steph Bridges, Hannah Whiteley and James Boulding, to name just a few.

Check out Sam’s website for more on him, and if you’re interested in the UK competition circuit check out the BKSA’s Kiteival site.
