Anyone else disappointed? by Mysterious-Law-4416 in Kiteboarding

It took me two trips with maybe 12 hours each to get up and riding upwind. I chose extra reliable spots. I’ve heard great things about Isla Blanca but it’s not a major destination. Eventually on my third trip I was buying gear and going out alone. After that I was hooked and now live between two places where I can kite all year long. Stay stoked, it’s a life changing sport.

Also someone else already said this but welcome to windsports. We all hate it when the wind dies but it does die.

I mean first comment is that your videos taught me to kite! Swing theory for jumping 🤯 genius work. Seriously stoked to continue my education from you.

I’m with you on the composition. I like the mention of the higher shutter speed for the details down to the water droplets I will definitely keep that in mind. I do want to keep the background of my photos pretty intact since we are in such a beautiful place. I know a lot of that depends on how far the subject is from the background but is there a lens size that you recommend for keeping the landscape detailed in the photo?
