"It was Jim Bison in La Ventana that worked with me and my daughter. He is in a class by himself; his patience and excellent use of many modalities excelled our learning curve. Thanks again and may the Wind Gods spoil you".

"At Big Winds, we've recommended New Wind Kiteboarding School to all of our customers who are interested in kite lessons. Dave has done a great job with them, teaching the safety aspects as well as the skills for kiteboarding. We've heard nothing but good things about his program, and will continue to recommend him highly."
- S. Gates, General Manager, Big Winds, Hood River, Oregon

"I traveled to Hood River this past July with a mission: to learn to kiteboard. Of the multiple instructors with whom I spoke, I was most impressed by David's approach and his willingness and desire to get his students piloting traction kites and on a board when ready. David's enthusiasm for kiteboarding clearly shows when teaching his students. The steady progression from learning kite piloting and kite theory with an emphasis on safety to being in the water with a board provided us with the knowledge and skills to be confident that we could enjoy the sport as fledgling kitesailors. The wave runner was not only a great "safety net," but enabled him to provide on water instruction and pointers from the immediate vicinity (and to take pictures of us in which we look like pros!). These elements, together with his patience, personality and skill as a teacher, combined to make this a rewarding learning experience for both of us."
