I first met Mike when I went to his Luxury Kite Clinic in Brazil. It was the best trip I have ever taken and the progression was insane. Everyone in the clinic had massive progression and the technical video breakdowns every morning were a huge help to see where to improve. Mike has mastered the ability to observe your riding and communicate how to improve. One day I was working on dark slides and was struggling hard, at lunch he spent some time with me laying on a table and mentally working on how to get into the slide. After lunch I immediately had my first successful dark slide. I couldn't believe I went from total fail to success in about 5 tries with Mike breaking down the trick and my mistakes. I also took my girlfriend down to the Brazil clinic and even though the travel was hard to get there, she doesn’t kite, and she was the only female on the trip, Mike made her feel right at home and part of the group. As we left she said “she missed it already”, which is all due to Mike being such a great host. I also went to cape town right after Mike got injured in King of the Air and he still hobbled out to the beach and gave me coaching using his radio headsets and helped me navigate learning the massive Cape Town swells. In summary I don’t think there is a better coach out there for big air progression and he will make you and your crew feel right at home no matter where you get lessons.

I can’t recommend Mike’s coaching highly enough! We just finished a 5 day clinic with him and his preparation, professionalism attention to detail and sheer quality of knowledge and enthusiastic approach are unparalleled. And on top of that what an all around amazing human being!! An all around transformational and highly enjoyable experience!

Excellent coaching. During the three day coaching with Mike I made more progress during any other lessons I've taken. Mike is really good in spotting small mistakes and helping showing how to correct them

Mike is an awesome coach! He explains every detail so well and prepares you physically, that you can progress your kite skills in no time and go from semi-kook to semi-pro in no time 🙂 Personally I understood how to do proper downloops, how to jump higher on different kites and all the basics of kiteloops in just few days
