Pro-camp / individual-instruction in the gorge

I'm interested in getting some one-on-one instruction on aerial moves: boosting bigger jumps, and backrolls, etc. I will kite anywhere in the Gorge between Stevenson and Roosevelt, in up to 30mph wind. I ride a 5'7" quad fin surfboard.

Are there any camps in the gorge this summer for advanced kiting. Or perhaps an instructor out there who would like to do some individual sessions.

Mark Worth gave me a lot of good information. He has really thought through the mechanics of kiting and kite tricks, and teaches you the "why" as well as the "how". His on-the-water instruction technique is quite effective.

I have a good progression to practice on my own. I think I'll be jumping higher and in control within a week or two.
