We’ve all been there, a fellow kiter has lost their board and you happen to be close to it. You’d like to retrieve it and carry it over, saving them a hefty body drag upwind. Only problem, you don’t know how! You give it a go, crash your kite, drop their board on your feet and end up drifting downwind at a snail’s pace!
Here we give you a step by step method to carry a board safely and securely whilst flying your kite with two hands. No sliding off your knees and hitting your feet, or crashing your kite. It’s an essential skill that every kiter should master. This will make riding downwind, upwind and transitioning whilst carrying a board an achievable reality. - Sport

I wouldn't recommend this method, since it is dangerous with a board close to your QR and in front of your head...if you crash, you can get seriously injured! Better to hold one one hand, drag it behind or sit on it.
Hey Toby, thanks for the feedback, all fair points. We've taught this to hundreds of kiters and the feedback has always been very positive. For sure, if you're able to safely kite with one hand, dragging the board is a great option.
@@CKPerformancetv a very safe option is to just sit on the other board and drag it in like this
@@KITEFORUMcomis possible to ride seated on a second board?? there are videos about it?
@@GaetanoCrisci pretty much everything possible! One kite, two riders with a board. one kite with one rider and a person on the back, one kite with a rider in the air, the other riding on a board, two kites one rider, two kites one rider on top of the other etc ! try to search for it and see what you find.
@@GaetanoCrisci Yes, perhaps one for a future article!
