The story-board idea behind ¿AutoFocus¿ kiteboard video dvd is to bring together a group of the most talented, style driven and highly respected professional kiteboarders for one month. Drop them into one of the worlds most exclusive riding spots Mamora Bay, Antigua, build the largest and most elaborate conglomeration of sliders, kickers and rails, let them ride their ass off and push themselves to new levels, with the rider leaving the destination satisfied with their performance and truly representing who they are as a rider. The ultimate goal¿...to focus on progressing the sport of kiteboarding into a legitimizing new level.

Kiteboarding 101

Tronolone Production's (Unhooked, Awake) first in a series of instructional kite surfing videos does a great job at filling an instructional void at the intermediate level. Brings you unique and innovative options of being able to view either a full-screen version with the kite tricks front and center during the voiceover, or a split screen view with the host's instruction on the left, the action being completed on the right, and text below describing the scene. Definitely a maximum absorption value.

This one is going to be hard to beat. Kitefilm, in collaboration with Naish International, present the biggest kiteboarding instructional video DVD ever. The Complete Kiteboarding Guide features all of Naish's top riders and is hosted by double world champion Mark Shinn. This is the first instructional to take you from rigging your kite all the way to spins and tricks and riding waves. But don't think any instruction is too fast paced as the video is 4 hours long and recorded in 5 languages (English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish). There is 2 1/2 hours of instruction, 1 hour of interviews, and 30 minutest of bonus material.

After four years of kiteboarding, Jeff Tobias, Martin Vari and Ben Wilson had come to the realization that the future lies in the waves! Slingshot gave them this amazing opportunity by sending them around the world documenting their travels looking for the ultimate setups for riding the waves with a kite with this kiteboarding video dvd. The three of them were in total agreement - to make a movie from their SPARE CHANGE - and have complete control of it along with showing the fortunate lives they lead! Sound like a dream? Well here's how it all went down and where the vision came from.

New Release - Hot off the press! Confused about what entry level kiteboarding instructional DVD to get? Look no further, Zero to Hero is here, produced by Real Kiteboarding in Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, the largest and most respected lesson center on the planet.

You will get the most thorough, cutting edge, and effective instruction translated directly from the Zero to Hero camp to this DVD - with sections on safety and responsibility, wind, trainer kites, flying 4-line and 5-line inflatables, launching, landing, tuning, bodydrags, and board starts...everything to take you from a total zero to a safe and self-sufficient rider. And how about some killer bonus sections? The main program teaches you how to kite, but the bonus sections teach you how to be a kiteboarder. There is a Coaches Tips bonus section, where several Real Coaches, both men and women, sit down to answer a multitude of rapid-fire questions that will help you stay safe while learning to kite and literally cut months off your learning curve.

The team at Tronolone Productions has done it again with one of the great new kite boarding videos of the season. Not content with ushering in the newest era of performance in kiteboarding with the release of Space Monkeys last year, they now present the most anticipated kite surfing videos of the year with part 2. While filming Space Monkeys 2 with Jeff Tobias, Will James, Martin Vari and Jaime Herriaz the Tronolone Productions team captured the best wave footage ever filmed! Edgy soundtracks and super tight editing has become Tronolone's trademark and has established them as the most popular kiteboarding video producers. Space Monkeys 2 will only further that reputation.

Join 2004 PKRA world champion Aaron Hadlow, female wave ripper Ammy Naff, pro surfer turned pro kiter Josh Mulcoy, filmmaker Peter Trow (of course), and others on a wave rich journey to the enchanted waters of the Caribbean, deep into dusty Baja, Mexio, and all along California's diverse coastline. This kiteboarding video was filmed in colorful 16mm film and professional digital video, Soul Fly captures the essence of wave kiting as well as a look into the progression of freestyle riding. Experience this intriguing ride into the wind, the waves, travel, and soul.

And if you know anything about Peter, you'll guess that there's a serious dose of hardcore waveriding action, epic down-the line perfection, and heavy Santa Cruz power. Peter is also a stickler for clean, well-composed cinematography, and searches untiringly for the perfect soundtrack to create a masterfully edited film that appeals to everyone, one reason why Peter doesn't pop films out every six months. Reflecting Peter's surfing roots, Soul Fly is created with an old-time surf movie vein, but with the modern technical wizardry of kiteboarding today. Kiteboarding's current directional, wave oriented, style owes 100% hommage to Peter, who, by staying true to his roots, never relinquished his directional for either twin tip or wake style riding in his 6 years of kiteboarding. Combine that with the sport's youngest world champ, who can do anything on a kite, and Josh Mulcoy, the most stylish and pure surfing style kiteboarder today, and you've got a video that will headline your collection. A new kiteboarding video with soul.

Tronolone Production's sequel to their popular kiteboarding video Unhooked. And as one should always strive to improve on the original, Tonolone does not disappoint. Buster Tronolone consolidated all the best of his footage from his travels around the world over the past year. The result, Unhooked 2, is a great video that has all varieties of riding - giant waves complete with several psychos pulling into death barrels and toying with shorebreak itching to crush peoples spines, crazy slider park action, and all the rest of your state-of-the-art kiting, i.e. powered handlpass moves, kite loops, crashing, etc.

Editing is clean with some rider feature sections like in their other popular DVD Awake, but also a mixture of great travel and riding style features. All in all a great mix of riding and conditions. Super clean water footage and a great soundtrack make this kite surfing DVD solid. And minimal lifestyle footage will please the hardcore viewer. Some featured riders include Andre Phillip, Ben Wilson, Jason Stone, Moehau Gould, Jason Slezak, Jeff Tobias, and many more.

Concept of Motion takes you there - snow kiting the best spots on Earth, the best waves ridden by the best riders in the world, plus whatever the land or sea has to offer. Concept of Motion isn't about the latest trick, it's about the love of the elements we play in. This video won't be out of date when the next new handlepass trick comes along, i.e. tomorrow. With a solid slate of footage, including handlepass moves, board-offs, wake moves, snow kiting, and in particular, wave riding, this video will last. And a great "road trip" feel makes it an experience every one can relate to. Some highlights include the best Lanes (Maui) waveriding footage we've seen, ultra fun and perfect California wave riding, a unique Oregon Coast trip, and some awesome snowking from Mammoth and Lake Tahoe featuring 16mm film footage of Jason Slezak and Mark Doyle.

It's about time we got a snowkiting video DVD in that was made in the US. We'll certainly give the Euros credit for pushing this sport into the future, but we've always had some killer locations as well, and some core groups of diehard snowkiters pushing the limits behind the scenes. Paul "Motz" Macaj is a pioneer of kitesnowboarding and a pro level guy at that. Now he's released a video that not only has some insane snowkiting in it, but chronicles some history of the sport as well. In fact, the video starts out pretty funny, with some clips of how goofy they were back when they were learning - you know, all of five and six years ago. Then the action ramps up into the modern era, culminating with the section on Guillaume "Chasta" Chastagnol, which will quite honestly leave you shaking your head in disbelief. The Next Chapter is filmed nearly entirely in Colorado, but in extremely varied terrain, from super flat powder, to bowly skatepark stuff, to back country heaven. And it is nearly 100% kite snowboarding, but the bonus section with Alex Peterson on skis is a must-see stunt. Other riders include Motz, Mark Doyle, James Brown, and friends. But just for the 20 minute bonus section with Chasta is worth the price of admission.

The sequel to Air Sickness! It's evident that a lot has changed performance-wise since then and we're bringing it all to you with Strung Out. We're calling it a unique and progressive video. That's because we tried to capture everything that's going on, wake style, snow style, four-line danglers (that'd be my style) and everything inbetween. And there is a heavy emphasis on wave-riding. This all adds up to more variety in one video than you've ever seen before. You'll be left drooling for more.

Air Sickness

If you want to get your money's worth, look no further than Air Sickness.

All this edited to a fantastic soundtrack by our expert editors here at Side-Off Video (that'd be me, which explains why it took so long).

This is probably the first truly multi-dimensional kiteboarding video. Guaranteed to quench your kiteboarding thirst!

Learning to kiteboard well and with confidence is all about breakthroughs. Once you have a breakthrough with some aspect of kiting, whether it's through an an on-the-water experience, something you read or your friend told you, or a video, everything clicks and you'll wonder why you ever had trouble in the first place. This video is aimed at the level of kiting where you most need those breakthroughs.

Why are you inconsistent with your jibes? Why do you gack your jumps sometimes? How can you get those floaty jumps? Why do you crash the kite on a jump? How can I re-launch easier? How can you gain confidence with your wakeboard? How do you do a quad? ...Well, maybe not that last one, but "How to Rip Harder" will answer all the rest of these questions and more.

How To Rip

This is Ken Winner's first instructional kiteboarding video. If skimming across teh water, carving high-speed turns, and lifting off into 20 foot jumps sounds like fun, Kiteboarding is the sport for you. Start here to learn safely and easily.
