Who is the #1 Freestyle kiter in North America???

Postby Cab Driver » Tue Jun 17, 2014 7:41 pm

Since the IKA never returned my emails about setting up sanctioned freestyle national championships for the USA and for Canada, how about a kiteforum user poll about who is #1??

So who is the #1 Freestyle kiter in North America?? Let's not just vote in the technical boots PKRA style of "five-tricks" riding, let's make sure we are talking about someone well rounded that can do redonculous megaloops as well.

Oh - my vote is Billy Parker

I guess he means him!

Isn't Triple S an inofficial Championship?

So the best NA rider should be it!
Slick style I guess would be similar to freestyle.

The only kiter than continues to turn my head is Shawn Richman. He's got a style of his own.
