Brian Ackerman has been kiting for only a year. Brian is very fortunate because when he learned kiting he was taught the "Wong Way" from an ancient Chinese Master Kiter, known as Kinsley Wong. Through great Chinese legend it was taught that there was a kiter "Wong Way" who taught the ninjas how to glide atop the bamboo reeds between the villages. It is also rumored that as a young boy the original "Wong Way" kiter was seen jumping back and forth over the Great Wall of China with his 12 meter bamboo reed and rice paper Waroo, Version1. This ancient technique was handed down over the centuries and eventually taught to Brian by the "Wong Way" master himself, a direct descendent of the original Master Kiter. Today Brian can be seen at Pismo Beach preforming some of the great "Wong Way" skills he has learned.

BRIAN ACKERMAN - TEAM RIDER
Often some say there is a golden auora around his presence due to the great powers he posess to jump so high. It is rumored that Brian's actions are so quick that he even outruns the camera. However, in one lucky instance he was caught on camera executing one of his smaller "Wong Way" kite jumps over as he was still on his ascent over local kiter and team rider Art de Werk. Note the center lower hoto and amazement in Art looking skyward and almost hypnotized by Brian's great feat. When asked about his great skills, Brian humbly prefers not talk about them, but says, Kiting good is ok but kiting the "Wong Way" is the only way. Look for Brian reinacting the famous "Wong Way" aerial stunts preformed at the Great Wall of China in the upcomming Summer Olympics in China!
