Welcome everyone to the third episode of the Sport Kite Podcast where we will be talking about any and all things sport kite related. Over the next episodes we hope to talk about everything from how to set up your first sport kite, to more advanced stuff like how to tweak your trick flying, and kind of a little bit of everything in between. I am your host, Nic O’Neill, founder of sportkite.org, and I wanted to thank you for tuning in and listening.
In this episode Paul de Bakker, Hunter Brown, John McCracken, Devin Cobleigh-Morrison and Zach Gordon talk about if competition is necessary for learning how to fly Sport Kites. John kicks it off with some insight into a personal approach to competition Zach adds that competition is perhaps the easiest way to engage with other fliers. Devin gives us some insight into how facing intimidation and vulnerability is a part of the learning process. For Paul competition helps deal with discipline and adaptation. Perhaps there is something to learn from our approach to competition, and how it may change our progression as kite fliers. Let’s get started
