点评:I cannot express enough how grateful I am for Ty and his coaching style - in two days of his instruction I progressed farther than I have in 2 years with two other schools and 6 other coaches. His setup is top notch (and brilliant) and he is focused on truly teaching not selling you gear. A comfortable boat ride out to a giant playground meant I didn’t get exhausted walking against a current before we even began and I didn’t have to fight tourists or other kiters for a spot. Ty took his time to ensure I fully understood all concepts, including some the other schools never even mentioned - and it all became so much clearer! The tower (a brilliant idea/design) showed him immediately what my major issue was and quickly helped my body understand what needed to happen to be successful. The two way communication while kiting was also a game changer - getting immediate feedback and being able to ask questions real-time saved so much time/energy! It is such a welcome change to work WITH the wind/kite/board rather than it being an all out brutal cage match every single time. Ty is a natural problem solver and when I encountered a gear issue for which there was no current solution available he went above and beyond to identify a unique solution. He truly cares about his students and their safety! He is quick to give praise and point out things you are doing right - even when you don’t realize you did them. If you are struggling and are on the fence about starting with someone new since you’ve already invested so much money in the sport - stop hesitating and call Ty right now. It is worth every penny! If I had started my kiteboarding journey here it would have saved me thousands. I can’t wait to get back out to Ty-land and continue to develop my skills with an incredible mentor and all around fantastic human!
翻译:我无法充分表达我对 Ty 和他的指导风格的感激之情——在他两天的指导下,我进步得比我在其他两所学校和 6 名教练指导的两年里进步的还要多。他的设置是一流的(而且很出色),他专注于真正的教学,而不是向你推销装备。乘坐舒适的船前往一个巨大的游乐场意味着我在开始之前不会因为逆流而行而筋疲力尽,也不必与游客或其他风筝冲浪者争夺一个位置。Ty 花时间确保我完全理解所有概念,包括其他学校从未提及的一些概念——一切都变得清晰多了!塔(一个绝妙的想法/设计)立即向他展示了我的主要问题是什么,并迅速帮助我的身体了解需要做什么才能成功。放风筝时的双向交流也改变了游戏规则——获得即时反馈并能够实时提问节省了大量时间/精力!这是一个非常受欢迎的变化,可以与风/风筝/冲浪板一起运动,而不是每次都是一场残酷的笼中比赛。 Ty 天生就是解决问题的高手,当我遇到装备问题而目前没有解决方案时,他竭尽全力找到了独特的解决方案。他真正关心他的学生和他们的安全!他会迅速表扬你并指出你做对的事情 - 即使你没有意识到自己做对了。如果你正在挣扎,并且犹豫是否要和新人一起开始,因为你已经在这项运动上投入了这么多钱 - 不要犹豫,现在就打电话给 Ty。每一分钱都值得!如果我从这里开始我的风筝冲浪之旅,我就可以省下数千美元。我迫不及待地想回到 Ty 的土地上,继续在一位不可思议的导师和周围所有出色的人的帮助下发展我的技能!
