EP 2 | Athea_Kites - kitesurfing instructor & content creator

In this episode, Sasha sits down with Athea — a kite instructor, content creator, and self-described "wannabe pro" based on the coast of Australia. In less than four years, Athea went from her first terrifying tandem ride on the open ocean to becoming a certified instructor and building a genuinely helpful online following with her breakdown-style kite tutorials.

They talk about how to overcome fear in kitesurfing (both in the water and in your own head), the difference between coaching beginners and competitive riders, and why visualizing a trick before you ever get on the water might be the most underrated training tool out there. Athea also opens up about getting sponsored, what goes into producing tutorial content, and why a strong female kite community makes all the difference — whether you're at a world-class spot or a tiny windy town in the middle of nowhere.

A genuinely fun and inspiring episode for anyone who wants to progress their kiting — or just needs motivation to roll around on the floor practicing board offs until the wind comes back. 🌬️
