I convinced Sam Pilgrim that it would be a good idea to tow-in to some b So some times you win, and some times you loose It is after all what makes the adventure so much fun. Exploring new spots and testing out places to ride i This season at the start of I spent two months in Cape Town. It is by far one of my favourite places to hang out and kite and if you follow my other vid So I offer this service where I make peoples day, and guarantee a good session, but obviously this comes at a price!
KL: Well its was quite simple really, my good mate Tom Court needed a launch, this progressed to travelling with him incase no one was at hand for a launch, the travelling escalated and soon he was paying for my service, this is when I went into business and started offering my services to other pros and later to the needy public…demand is high, I capitalised!
KSm: We hear that you grew up on hard times in the dangerous back streets of the Isle of Wight. Do you think this constant battle for survival has helped to form your dedication and pioneering spirit in the world of professional launching? KL: Yes, most definitely, the Isle of Wight is one of the most harsh environments to be brought up in. KSm:In the early days you were exclusively launching for Tom Court. What were you reasons for this?
KL: As I said earlier it just progressed that way to be launching for Tom. Anyways not alot of people out there in the industry have got a sense of humour or really know how to roll, I opened up and offered my service out to the UK crew as these boys know how to party!!
Its not just about the launching, its about the lifestyle that goes with it. KSm: Was there a trigger moment when you just knew it was time to expose your raw launching talent to the world? KSm: With your now legendary status in the world of launching, do you think this has changed your approach and the way you train to refine your technique? Once I picked up some weights but the real secret to my training is in the mind, I need to be mentally fit for what I do, so I got one of them Nintendo brain trainers and I hit that pretty hard most nights.
The attention from launching however, I have just had to deal with it! Last year at the PKRA in Fuerteventura I was turning launches down left right and centre, mainly because there were so many girls on the beach, it made it hard to work over crowding in the launch area.
In the end I had to leave after concerns about safety from the world tour committee, which was a shame…. KSm: How would you describe your personal style in terms of how the world sees you and how you see yourself? KL: Which country we talking about??? KSm: Do you have any advice for those who want to get into the world of launching?
KL: By launching I assume you mean the launching of my business? KL: Join the que and send your pictures to: [email protected]. KSm: Thank you for taking the time to talk to us. Before we finish up here it is customary to let our interviewees part with a few words of wisdom or advice that you have learned along the road of life … the soapbox is yours ….
Christmas time is always a period when we dream about lights and magic… and this is exactly what Therese Taabbel brought us….
