Sparrow Videos

Post by KED »

1) Is there a place/person in the U.S. from whom I can order a Sparrow video?
2) I've had my k~board in the water a few times each year for the past three years and have ended up putting it away due to beginner's frustration :oops: . My passion has been waveski surfing for the last 10 or so years, so I end up hanging up the k-board and sticking to the skiis. This year I've decided I'm committed to learning how to k~board. That's my story and I'm sticking to it :twisted: That said... any recommendations on which Sparrow video would be most helpful to watch 100 or so times to help get the basics down? A lot of video footage seems to be of k~boarders way off shore... hard to see the specifics of the manouvers. Thanks!

Dont know where you get them in the States but go to Simons web site and it probably has a distributor listed.

I found 'Now and then" a great one to watch for general KB manouvres but have all but one of his videos. Good shots of the Simpsons, Baden, Albert, Simon and a few others. Coup;e of the other vids have a lot more bigger wave action which is great to watch but not so relevent for my local breaks.
