how can you ever say wake style is boring, monotonous, all the same just a different spin, and then go and do 1300 different variations of taking the board off and putting it back on.

geez.

In fact i really enjoy flying the kite kite through a big jump. So I find if i add tricks it detracts from my kite flying fun.

Ok I do basic grabs and some upside down. But that's about it.

Its a bit of a problem when there isn't any waves because flat, choppy water bores me after 20-30 minutes. If i found more joy in tricks i'd better enjoy those no swell days.
you are happy and stoked...that's all that counts, no matter what you do! :thumb:

for me it is boring. I didn't say it is for you, did I ?
But I say, there are also other people who I talk to, who also find it boring.
Not everyone finds wakestyle interesting, and also not everyone likes Airstyle.
That's fine, accepted and welcome. Many styles for many people.

Wakestyle (and all other styles) also have lots of different variations, and I am sure there is more stuff too.

More to come!!!

It seems like every discipline has those few individuals who focus their energies and reach that 10K (plus) of practice, and then innovate while laying the groundwork for future generations. Whether its painting, racing motorcycles, or computer programming there are those select few who dedicate their lives to evolving their art form. I have tremendous appreciation for anyone who is pushing the boundaries of a specific discipline and it will be fascinating to see how Airstyle evolves.

The one who follows the crowd will usually get no further than the crowd. The one who walks alone, is likely to find himself in places no one has ever been.
