On the<br />
Road<br />
and<br />
After the end of last year’s PKRA tour, five-time world champion<br />
Aaron Hadlow announced that he wouldn’t be returning for the<br />
2010 season. His good friend Ruben Lenten had stepped away<br />
from the competition scene a few years before and they decided<br />
to work together on a plan to travel the world while shooting<br />
episodes of their own TV show, On the Loose. With support from<br />
Red Bull, On the Loose is now shown on the air in certain parts<br />
of Europe and is bringing not just kiteboarding action, but the<br />
kiteboarding lifestyle to millions of homes.<br />
On the<br />
Loose<br />
Webisodes are available to watch at www.ontheloose.tv. We<br />
caught up with Aaron (Azza, as Ruben calls him) and Ruben<br />
while they were in the Phillipines for the Wind or No Wind<br />
Board Jam where they talked about their travels around<br />
the world, where the sport is heading, and Ruben<br />
gave us a little insight to the S-Loop, a stalled<br />
megaloop where the kite changes direction<br />
at the bottom of the loop, a move that<br />
he has yet to pull off.<br />
