A pioneer of the sport, Ben was one of the first to use a surfboard in harmony with a kite and he continues to drive the sport in new directions. In 2011, Ben broke a world record, riding the largest wave ever kitesurfed at Cloudbreak, Fiji. He continues to chase big swell and believes that the largest waves can only be ridden with a kite. For Ben, kitesurfing is the ultimate extension of surfing, providing the opportunity to enjoy even blown out onshore conditions.

Namotu Island July 2019 Kite Week
Просмотров 5715 лет назад
The weekly wrap from our July 2019 Kite Week on Namotu Island. Thanks so much to everyone who made it so special! We did a ton of foiling, surfing and the kids who came with their families had an amazing time on the water and hanging with the Fijians on the island. www.namotuislandfiji.com/signature-week/ben-wilson-kite-weeks/ Video and edit by Stu Gibson

The weekly wrap vid by our Kite Week photographer, Stu Gibson. The week started with big waves & strong winds which tempted pro surfers and kiters to Cloudbreak. Conditions mellowed during the following days with plenty of chances for surfing, kiting and other activities like foiling, fishing and diving for our guests. benwilsoncoaching.com/trips/namotu-fiji-kite-trips stugibson.net bwsurf.com
Ben Wilson SoloSports Kite Week 2019
Просмотров 3,8 тыс.5 лет назад
We've just wrapped another amazing week at SoloSports, Punta San Carlos. Thank you to everyone who joined - you all made some incredible progress with your wave kiting and it was so good to share some waves with you! The waves here are so perfect for practising strapless kitesurfing whether you're moving from twin tip to surfboard or strapped to strapless. Can't wait to do it all again in 2020!...
Namotu Island Kite Week - more than kitesurfing

There are many reasons why these trips sell out a year in advance but it's not what you'd assume. Although you might come to Namotu to surf, kite, fish, SUP or foil, the reason you'll keep coming back has nothing to do with sports and everything to do with people.

I'm lucky enough to live on Queensland's Sunshine Coast where there's a huge amount of great fishing within an easy distance. I took my boat up to the southern end of the Great Barrier Reef with a few friends and documented this two day fishing trip.

SoloSports Kite Week 2, 2018
Просмотров 7996 лет назад
There’s a reason why people travel to such a remote part of the world; SoloSports is a wind and wave machine. I kited every day for two weeks during the two consecutive Kite Weeks. The degree of progression made by guests here is second to none and that effect really comes down to the consistency of the wind and gentle waves that give everyone the opportunity to practise turns again and again t...

SoloSports Adventure Holidays in Punta San Carlos [PSC] is a fully catered adventure sports hub that’s been operating in Baja, California Mexico for over 25 years.

Most of you probably know Namotu Island, Fiji for it’s incredible surfing and kiting, but it also has world-class fishing that’s practically within casting distance of the beach. Fishing is one of my biggest passions and there’s no better place to indulge it than Namotu Island. Here in Australia, IFish is one of the biggest and most recognised fishing shows.

How to self land your kite

Kitesurfing by yourself can not only be risky but a little tricky. Launching and landing your own kite takes a bit of practise and finesse but there are a few fairly simple techniques you can use. This video shows you how to land your kite safely by yourself. Filmed in Taiba, Brazil by Stu Gibson (stugibson.net) and edited by Beau Blake.

Best video i've seen on the subject Thanks
I stiil have this one !
Muito bom vou faz
do not do it ~> U N L E S S YOU ARE EXPERIENCED KITER so, holding one side of kite with your board helps avoid accidental launch before you manage get to chicken loop and fix yourself to harness if winds are a bit gusty. However do not forget it is the best to launch with buddy. Thanks
The Great Barrier Reef is magical ✨
Wouldn’t be possible to land the kite softly on the side (like) tethered, then grab both frontlines to force the kite to front of windwindow - and the grab top frontline, to have the leading edge drop to the sand?
Only light wind
Probé 5m 40 knots jejejejje
No pasaron por un desierto con casas abandonadas para pasar por la plaza?
Please consider taking this down in favour of beginners safety. A lot of unsafe Handling here. Why would you connect your Safety at last? If handled the right way, the shown methods CAN be quite safe.
I bring a second leash (or could be a rope with carabiners) for anchored launches. That was you can get your leash squared away before you are hooked in.
Yewwwwww, Ben's back!
Sick vid! Shared on our page in the vids section at wx.ikitesurf.com/
Classic. Thanks for posting.
Pure gold!
Thanks for sharing this. Brings me back to the good old times😀
Stoked on the videos !!!
Sick thanks for sharing, u rip Ben!
great video, will be using it next time! thanks
Any kite school there?
I run clinics there at SoloSports but that's it.
place looks so fun !!
Thank you
Great tutorial Ben appreciate the instruction
Sick video!
Good video mate I'm On the sunny coast to
Ben Perfect tutorial thanks for that
Awesome location and video, I can´t understand why such a few views, thanks for sharing.
I still can't seem to find a video that uses the sand on the folded tip method. That's one that I would constantly use on beaches where the is debris on the sand that could cut up your kite or snag your lines. Guess it's possible that its not practical any more with kites being able to be pumped to super high pressure and probably works better with C-kites.
I want to go to there.
looks like u should bring your mtb as well . I tried a BWS 10 a few years ago , think it was a 2010 , amazing kite
Nice video. 🤙
Seems like a weird guy
Nice video!
Fantastic! Thanks 😊
# 1 on our Bucket List.
Best spot on planet earth for having fun if you are a water person. And the staff is amazing.
Very nice Ben! Love it! Shared on our page in the vids section at wx.ikitesurf.com/
Tho its 10 years old, the '2009 Cabrinha tech tip self launch and land' vid still works and includes more safety tips. It avoids the risk of kite tumbling down the beach by standing too far downwind of the kite on attempted launch as in this vid. Only point to add is that once kite is on its leading edge with taut lines, its safer to walk to either side in order to put it closer to the edge of the wind window before launching ... especially in strong wind!
Safety, this unkown :-|
Only clip on the safety, hold the chicken loop in your hand if it all goes wrong let go,this also gives the opportunity if it is light wind or gusty to pull the lines tight stopping the kite rolling backwards ie down wind.once the kite has power and is sat on a tip then clip into the chicken loop and launch.
Super video!
Very nice edit- beautiful spot! Shared on our page in the vids section at wx.ikitesurf.com/
That looks good, nice Video.
Amazing
Great vid mate Wish I was a bit closer But any day fishing is a good day Tight lines🐟
I hope no one on our beach makes the same errors you do in this video. There are so many unsafe mistakes here, you should really consider removing this video and starting over so you don't get anyone hurt.
Bad night?
So what way should it have been done, I riealy cant see anyting here that he has done wrong in any method it's down to the person's mind to stay calm you have all the safety systems on the bar to release if someting goes wrong.
@Benwilson, What beach is that?
It's a spot out front of Vila Marola in Taiba, Brazil
