Hi Sarah, Marc and all,
I just wanted to thank you both for the best introduction to this great sport !
I'm aching a bit today and I keep finding sand in unusual places but I had a superb two days down in South Wales, trying something new and meeting some very friendly people.
Your instruction, advice and knowledgable hints and tips have I'm sure given me a good start, although my head is so full of things to remember, only now is some of it beginning to sink in ! My wife has patiently listened to my explanation of how to depower and control the kite along with a crash by crash account of my first attempts on the board !!
You both showed a genuine desire to help me to progress and watching Sarah showing me how to body-drag through that freezing surf demonstrated some real dedication to teaching !
On top of the kiting fun I was especially taken by the welcome I received from everyone I met. I was a little daunted by it all at first, but I soon found that it is a really nice community of friends down there. And rather than being excluded as an outsider, I was left with the feeling that I had joined a group of like-minded people who had instantly accepted me into their ranks. Sadly, I think this is often all-too-rare, so thank you for making me feel so at home !
Now all I need is some kit (and some ability !) and hopefully I will be able to see you again soon down on the beach.
Thank you !
David

We are all about kiting, all aspects of kiting, and are excited to be able to share our passion with others. There is something magic about flying a kite,
even the smaller trainer kites. It's hard to describe, but I feel it has something to do with the power, the smooth movement and colour that appeals to
the unconscious mind that relaxes us so much when flying kites, or maybe it's the freedom of silent traction, or the thrill of controlling masses of potential energy.
Whatever it is for you, it can be found in the ensuing pages of this website.
Kitesurfing is a relatively new sport that has taken the worlds foreshores by storm. All sporting backgrounds are represented in its members, from
wakeboarders, kite flyers, windsurfers, surfers, snowboarders, skaters, paragliders , not to mention the hordes of people entering the sport with no athletic or board sport
back ground at all.
The common link between all the styles of kitesurfing (wakestyle, big air, speed, racing, wave riding and freeriding) are that they are all done flying
big powerful kites. Pro kiters enjoy flying trainer kites as much as newbies, it's all about the kite. BLAST are all about providing safe access into the
sport for people who want a change in their life. I say this because kite surfing and flying is more than just a sport, it is a way of life, a habit, an outlet from lifes frustrations and stresses and to many, bordering on a religion.
It hits you from the moment you first take control of the kite at the start of the first lesson, an adrenaline rush as you are in control of more power than
you have ever felt in your life! The freedom of shutting out all of lifes distractions to focus on the pleasure of flying a kite for a couple of hours. The unmistakeable feel
of freedom and a connection with the wind and the water, two of the most powerful forces on earthTake a lesson with us and get started in what is most likely a pivotal moment in your life, the day you started flying power kites! A day no doubt that will lead
you on a new path of more fun in your life, new passion and vitality through fun and exercise.
Once you have mastered the basics of flying, why not join us on a kite holiday? Maybe join in on a kite clinic for total emersion therapy of kites for a week.
Whatever you choose, BLAST can be your gateway to kite sports. Give us a call after you have had a browse around. I wish you steady winds and blue skies.
Thanks for visiting our site,
