PostFri Jul 24, 09 5:35 pm    School Near Stevenson Needed Reply with quote

Hey-

Can anyone point me towards a beg/int school in Stevenson? I booked a room for a couple days next week and now need to find some lessons.

I've already contacted Cascade Kiteboarding but I have no idea if there schedule is available.

Are there any other schools in the area?

Thanks

Todd

Tonia is great. She uses jet skis and the radio helmets. This is her first year using the radio and she says it is awesome.

Tonia is the only official instructor in Stevenson.

Hey Guys, thanks for the props! I don't want to "advertise" here, but I do want to just clarify... I do have another instructor -- Ben Woodcock (more on Ben here). He is doing the Skamania Parks kids' kite camps with me too. He is a fantastic coach.

We are both IKO Level 2 certified instructors.

We use two Yamaha 3-seater Waverunners for ALL water lessons (Basic 4-line flying, body-dragging, board starts, and intermediate riding).

We use radio-helmet coaching for ALL water lessons.

We are the ONLY school in Stevenson and are happy to teach in such an awesome riding location with really great people!!
