HOW TO CATAPULT

cyprusFLY

Given that catapulting is the universal innate trait of all intermediate go-for-it windsurfers (and many others), and is undesirable, why the need for coaching? Well, the simple fact that not every catapult results in structural damage does suggest that there are good ways to go and bad ways to go. A novice catapulter, seen from a safe distance, will often remind the observer of a Cruise missile impact – impressive, and destructive. Whereas an expert catapulter may resemble something more akin to a WW2 destroyer depth charge detonation – worth watching, but really much less violent.

Tao to reduce the severity of your catapults you have basically just got to stay sheeted in, even if the situation already seems lost. To absolutely guarantee against catapults you must have your feet firmly in their footstraps and keep them there. On bigger boards get into both straps before you build up to warp speed. If you have both feet locked in the footstraps, stay totally sheeted in, and still manage to go round the front – then you have just done a forward loop, which is also quite impressive.

Kiteboarding

Kiteboarding is a fast – growing new sport combining the thrills of windsurfing, wakeboarding and kite flying. With kites, you can reach speeds several times the speed of wind – even average skills are quite enough to reach up to 70 – 80 km/h. Kites allow both high and long jumps, sailing at various angles to the wind and even sailing to the wind. Kiting does not require physical strength – it is the sense of balance that matters here. If you have done windsurfing, wakeboarding or snowboarding, the first stages in kiteboarding can be easily achieved. The beginners’ course in kiteboarding consists of 8 – 10 hours with an instructor dedicated to flying a piloting kite, flying a regular kite, and bodydrag (i.e. flying the kite while lying on the board). Generally, on completion of the course students master the board. All the equipment required for training is insured, all inclusive. The choice of equipment will depend upon weather conditions. Please bear in mind that kiteboarding involves a significant degree of risk both to the kite and people nearby. Nevertheless, it is much safer than many other sports and is a great adrenalin rush!
