Freestyle Kite Surfing: American Kite Surfing AssociationFreestyle is an extremely popular area for the sport of kite surfing. It involves technically using the board and the kite to get height enabling the kiter to do big jumps, rotations, board offs. There are a number of freestyle moves; the most advanced are handle passes (where a kite surfer unhooks from the harness and rotates their body while passing the bar behind their back at the same time). A smooth landing is the key to making a freestyle move. This dramatic interest in the athletically demanding sport has given AKSA founders encouragement about the value of their newly founded organization. Logan Long, co-founder of the association was not surprised by the results; “It’s just simply the biggest adrenaline rush available. The combination of air, water, land, wind power, physical strength and balance the force of nature are the qualities that attract Kite Surfers.” American Kite Surfing Association is the leading organization for kite surfers in North America. Founded in 2006 by two extreme sport enthusiasts, membership is anticipated to exceed 30,000 before the end of the year. The purpose of the enterprise is to bring heightened awareness to this fast-growing, dynamic, and fun sport. A vast array of information, products, and techniques are available to the visitors of the AKSA website, www.kite-surfingusa.com. After more than a decade of popularity through Europe and Australia, active North American extreme sport athletes are recognizing the maximum adrenaline rush through kite surfing.
