Learn to progress your kitesurfing from your sofa! Episode 1: Board Grabs - It's time to get some exercise with a few grab routines and build up that muscle memory ready for when you are back on the water! All from the safety of your sofa, Progression's Rob Claisse will introduce you to the basics of the tail grab, giving you the in-depth understanding of what, why and how to make that first grab. Then we'll look at how to improve our technique by hanging under the kite before we run through all 9 backhand grabs.

The plan is for two videos each week: * The Weekend video will focus on "doing", activities you can try and practice at home * The Mid-week video will cover a range of topics and focus more on better understanding through detailed theory briefings and question and answer sessions - submit your questions to Rob at kitesofaing@progression.me Thanks to: F-one: http://www.f-one.world Manera: http://www.manera.com Music: Brooklyn Nights by Chelsea McGough (via Soundstripe) Producers: Rob Claisse & Michelle Blaydon Kiters: Oli Sweeney, James Boulding, Danny Morrice, Karine Navitel, Christian Harris
