Not sure this kid is ready to be posting videos yet. That said, if he keeps practicing he does have a pretty good chance of getting good enough to make some videos in the future. |

This kid is ready to post videos. Maybe not the best forum entrance but the video is slick. This kid is looking for more sponsorship, and paid the dues to get this done. Give the kid a break. |

If I posted a video I would want honest reactions to it. Fifteen is not that young, Aaron hadlow won the pkra at 15. The video was well done, but the best advice for him is to practice and wait till he is riding close to the level of the best kids his age. He will get there, his style is really good. My guess is he hasn't even been riding very long.Keep charging kid, you will get there. |

I support the kids. Nice vid. Looks like he loves to kite. Its not all about being as good as the others or the mostest radest dude.
Sometimes its just about doing what you love.
I love to see kids who are working on the things they love.
Good job kiddo ! Keep it up.
Here is a cool video of my son last winter when he was 10.

this, people on here get too butt hurt when they hear the truth but here it is. filming and editing were great, but the riding was so so (don't get me wrong he is only 15) but so was Reed when he won BOTG plus a ton of other little groms around HR who throw down way harder. my point being claiming only 15 isn't really that big of a claim. maybe if he was 10 i would be more impressed. BTW keep shredding and us the hate to fuel your fire to prove them wrong. _________________ BIP- "YOUR GIRLFRIENDS FAVORITE" |

i wanna point out that he did do a blind judge @ 50sec. There isnt any 15 year old in oregon that throws blind judges right now. Some of the 15 year olds around here are a lot better than him as far as (s-blinds and back-blinds both harder tricks in my opinion), but they havnt actually got that trick yet, just saying
Nice editing and filming BTW _________________ Less fighting more kiting

Just wondering exactly what "dues" he paid in order to get this video done? _________________ I heart dangling |

So paying dues is riding for the camera now? Kids should just have fun and. E stoked they are able to kite at all. What kid can even afford gear? If it is all about getting sponsored the fun is lost. You already are sponsored, by your parents. |
