The kites they were flying had enough power to pull the flyer along leaving furrows in
the sand. Since the Peter Powell kite of the 70's they have come a long
way in design and technology. Several years ago I was on holiday in Devon and
saw people flying kites on the beach. I was fitter and I lost over a
stone in a couple of months without even trying to.I enjoyed this alternative sport so
much I opened up a shop selling kites and mountain boards. lessons revolved around football,
rugby or cricket and I hated them, notes to be excused were forged many times.
I bought myself a Flexifoil Pro Team 8 which was an 8 foot kite and
started having fun. These 4 line kites which are styled on para gliders or parachutes,
these really opened up the sport side and before long I was kite buggying and
kite land boarding. He introduced us to Tug of war and P.E. They
can be ridden downhill for fun or in competition with others. The 8 footer was
changed to a 10 footer and then stacked with 2 more as I craved for
more power and fun. They are also used for freestyle like snowboards and great height
and style can be achieved.Then I found the Frisbee, yes the humble Frisbee is a
requin tn whole list of sports. It is played on a pitch similar in size to a
football pitch with 2 end zones. Take a look around the internet or your local
alternative sports shop and try something new.This article was written by Alan Greenhill of http://www.kitensk8.com
who is a mountain board instructor and has been involved with secondary sports since early
2003. Disc golf is like normal golf but you throw a disc and not hit
a little ball It can be played by anyone either on a proper course using
baskets or a std golf course where hitting the flag is the aim. They can
manipulate the control lines to cause the kite to wrap itself up in its own
lines and then unwrap like a yoyo and still fly out afterwards; flat spins or
stalls are common. became interesting It got a lot of us hooked so we even
came back after school and weekends and we formed a team that took on local
pub teams in fetes and carnivals.That was a long time ago and work etc took
over life and sports took a back seat. A course can be made on your
local park by using trees, lamp posts or litter bins as targets. Kite N Sk8
have board technicians trained by MBS who are the leading mountain board manufacturers and they
nike shox nz also have their own teams who compete in the UK Championships for both mountain boards
and kites. Experienced flyers are doing tricks that amaze me. There are organised races all
over the world including endurance races for teams of pilots. The main one is probably
"Ultimate" which is a cross between American Football and Basket Ball. When someone says "are
you a sporty person" please don't immediately say no, there is probably a sport available
that you will thoroughly enjoy. It is very fast moving and direction of play changes
rapidly as if the disc is dropped it goes to the opposition. If you go
for speed you can reach 70mph+ but you will need a lot of space. Please
get in touch if you need help and we will be happy to assist. When
I was a kid my school P.E. I knew I had to have a go
on that. The teams throw the Frisbee to their team mates and attempt to catch
the Frisbee while standing in the opposition's end zone. I then discovered the power kite.
When my parents divorced I joined a new school and the sports teacher was a
bit more unconventional in his approach. The Frisbee is great just to throw and catch
and with LED technology can even be played at night.Contained here is just a small
sample of the alternative or secondary sports activities available through the right shop. Ultimate is
very exciting to watch and exhilarating to play. They can make up teams where 2
or more flyers are doing tricks in unison and getting their lines tangled, only to
do another trick and untangle themselves again.Mountain boards are similar to snow boards but they
have wheels so they can be ridden on a far more varied terrain. In doing
this I found myself looking for other alternative or secondary sports to try.Kite buggying is
my favourite sport, it involves flying a 4 line power kite whilst sitting in a
3 wheeled kart which you steer with your feet. There is also a freestyle series
now which involves strapping yourself into the buggy and attaching the kite via a harness,
this enables you to fly much larger kites and the kite can then pick you
and the buggy up to do 360 spins and many more tricks.Kite land boarding is
similar but you stand on a mountain board while flying the kite, this is more
difficult in the initial stages but can be more rewarding as the freestyle is more
achievable.Stunt kites, trick kites, or sports kites are 2 line kites that can be controlled
left or right by pulling the control lines. alan@gruntys.co.uk Thank you for reading this article..
