Book Reviews of Kites Method kiteboarding book (Kites Method Da Book)
Book Review: Seems Unedited Maybe Printed In A Basement
Summary: 2 Stars
This book is a big disappointment. The editing, quality and overall layout reeks of a small batch printing (the type where anyone w/ $300 can print anything).
The typos are to the point where they seem to give misleading information. At times the typo contradicts the author and says the opposite of what he said before.
I think this book can hurt a beginner, it is negligent to be sold in this condition and the author should be scared he will be sued by some dead kiter's family
What is funny is that he almost immediately opens the book telling the reader that "most readers only read the two pages of a book" and 1 page away is this typo: "...depending on com-"
Now I'm not sure what the rest of that sentence is supposed to be and I wonder, as an inexperienced kiter that bought a how to guide, if I am going to need that information?
The general writing is self important and much of it just feels like "fill". There are sections on where to go in Maui - which seems great if you actually live there, but for the other 99.9 % of kiters you are merely buying a local guidebook.
