So what about the story about the national coaching system where all the coaches suddenly switched overnight and carried on as kitesurf racing coaches, coming out with the same bullsh*t they'd been talking about to the windsurfers, only this time the squad knew they had no idea what they were talking about, since none of them a)Could Kitesurf, or b)Had ever raced with Kites.
Coaches.. there's an old adage, if you can't do it... To kids, coaches are just replacement teachers, we do it different, we let them find out the fun of the sport, they join in with us, don't get lectured, just helped now and again with pointers and now, we're slowly slipping out side the system once more and excluded, but hey, they can't stop us enjoying the sport for the sake of it.
