Wind: is a flow of gases on a large scale. The bulk of air movement causes a relitave preasure in whatever direction the winds move in. Short term high speed winds are refered to as gusts while longer durrations of winds are associated with some sort of storm like hurricanes typoons, etc. In the Narutoverse wind or wind release is a style of elemental ninjutsu which utilizes high speed winds to cause huge and/or powerful gusts of wind to overwhelm an opponent and force them back, or to deflect/send debre (as demonstrated by Temari's techniques). However wind release is also utilized in the fasion of closed ranged attacks and is also used to create blade like winds to cut through one's opponent.
Strengths/Weaknesses: Wind and wind release jutsu are naturally strong against lightning released based ninjutsu because it's a natural insolator of lightning (I'm not entirely sure on that or understand it completely though). While strong against lightning, wind is weak against fire release as the wind only adds to the fuel of the fire adding more air for it to spread. In a clash between the two the fires may be weakeneds lightly due to the resistance but overall unless the wind jutsu was vastly superior to the Fire in power, then the fire would still continue onto one's opponent. In contrast Wind and Fire work well together when combined as the wind will augment the fire increasing it's range and potential power.
Known users: Danzo Shiruma, Temari, Naruto, Asuma (R.I.P), Haku (through Ice release kekkei genkai), Oonoki and Mu (through Dust release kekkei tota), Daki (I think it was, Gaara, Kankuro and Temari's former sensei), Kakuzu, and that's who I can remember at the moment.
Chakra: in the Narutovers chakra is the life essence within the world and living things. Chakra consists of two components, yin(spiritual) chakra and yang (physical chakra) which are balanced between the two. The yin half of chakra is associated with mental strength and intelligence and genjutsu. Studying, increasing one's knowledge adhears to yin chakra. Yang chakra more commonly associated with ninjutsu and physical stamina is obtained through physical training to increase endurance and practicing jutsu. chakra allows those who are able to manipulate it, able to preform techniques that would otherwise be impossible. Besides one's ordinary chakra there are elemental chakra, of which include fire, water, earth, wind, and lightning (the five basics). To an advanced level there is yin release and yang release. Each elemental chakra gives the shinobi the ability to form, manipulate, and use whatever nature they unlock. for example wind release shinobi have the ability to create powerful gusts of blade like winds by fusing their chakra into the element or simply using their own wind release chakra and exerting it.
Ninjutsu: Ninjutsu as the name is the style of fighting used by shinobi. The style entails the training in basics such as stealth, concealing, basic weapon usage, basic trap making, survival tactics, fighting stratigics, rules and regulations of the shinobi world, critical thinking, and the fundamentals of taijutsu, genjutsu and ninjutsu (as the techniques). In terms of the sub style of ninjutsu, ninjutsu are techniques that are preformed generally by hand seals, and the utilization of chakra to create actual physical occurances that have the ability to harm one's opponent, create a physical defense for yourself or some other use.
Excellent job ^_^
As for your lightning and wind questions; Wind is strong against lightning because Wind jutsus have incredible resistance to electrical current, thus preventing it from spreading further, which translates in stopping the lightning jutsu.
Any questions before we proceed? ^^

Yes sensei.I see what you did there
Now I want you to sit down on the bird and start to meditate. Feel the wind flowing through you as we fly through the skies.
*I sit comfortably on the bird as it begins to lift off and fly. While flying through the air my body gets pressed against the air and feel soothing yet powerful and majestic winds against my body. The sensation of flying with and against the wind entices me. As the wind flows against my exterior body I begin to feel my flow of chakra recognizing the relation of the flow of my chakra to the flow of wind and my subconscious begins to affiliate the sensation my chakra flow with the sensation of the wind.*

*Struggles slightly*
Yes sensei.
*As the the turbulance knocks me around I focus more on my internal flow and less on the external disturbance. Ignoring the sounds and feel of the winds on my body I concern myself only with the relation between the wind's natural flows and my own chakra.*
Alright ^_^

[B]Ways to counter this technique[/B]After performing the bird hand seal, I want you to take a deep breath. Then you will focus wind chakra inside your lungs. Thereafter you will release a gust of wind out of your mouth. If done correctly, the gust of wind can then collect the dust or sand from the ground as its being directed towards your target.

Yes sensei.
Strong points
- This technique can be used to distance one's self from their opponent, by the gust of wind being strong enough to force them back. The strength of the wind could be used to not only force your opponent back away from you, but it could push them into objects like a rock or a tree, or get you out of range of a jutsu you may be in range of (primarily close or mid ranged)
- The dust this jutsu could pick up from preforming this jutsu could also cloud the sight of your opponent, giving you the opprotunity to get out of sight and used ambush based attacks (if that's your game plan) or escape from a situation you feel is out of your immediant range of thinking. Also the diversion it could play for the moment, blinding your opponent could give you the immediant go ahead to follow through with another jutsu that they wouldn't expect.
- Lastly, this jutsu comes in handy for deflecting and enhancing projectiles. When in terms of your opponent throwing projectiles towards you, you could use this jutsu, the gust of wind, being stronger then the natural strength of a shinobi's thrust in throwing projectiles like basic kunai or shuriken, would force them back towards one's opponent or simply render their attack towards you uselses by neutralizing the velocity at which it travels and they'll fall to the ground prematurely. In terms of you throwing your own projectiles, shooting your gust of wind in conjunction with the direction of your projectiles would increase the speed of the weapons and also how much force is behind them, meaning they head quicker to your opponent (harder to evade) and if they hit, the force behind it will cause more damage (via deeper wounds from penetration).
- For larger projectiles like fuma Shuriken or anything with a greater density, the wind may have a harder time deflecting them if thrown by your opponent.
- Since this is a relitave lower level jutsu, any fire technique would be able to make it's way through the winds and that would be an easy counter for this jutsu as well.
- Also considering the territory, if in a territory where there is a lot of dust. When this jutsu is preformed, just as you could use it as cover for another attack or an escape, your opponent could use it in the same way. The dust being between the two of you (if enough is gathered that is) could block your sight of your opponent, which is always a flaw that could be used against you.
Ways to counter this technique Using a fire jutsu to force through the flames, making it useless, or using a more powerful wind technique to render their winds useless and also to dispell the sand/dust. Also a jutsu of any kind that could provide a mass of movement in the opposite direction with strong enough force to combat the winds like a powerful/large flow of water or large amounts of earth (via earth jutsu) that would prove to be to dense for the winds to move, also if the earth is moving at it's own velocity towards their opponent, the winds could be useless. Also blocking the winds with some sort of barrier works just as good too.

Tori!
*I make the bird seal and I begin to inhale through my nose. I breath in from my diaphram, feeling the wind chakra deep inside my body. I feel the flow channeling from my diaphram into my lungs and I exhale through my mouth. The air coming out of my mouth, fused with my chakra creates a gust of wind, gathering the minirals from the ground (the dust) and creating a large gust of dusty wind, which disperses from a steady stream into the air after s certian distance*
Sensei is this good? ^^
That was outstandingly good, I'm very happy with you ^_^
I'd only like to mention one thing, and its what I bolded above. I would not suggest using this technique to get out of the way of jutsu, it may result in arguments. We will soon learn another useful wind technique that is perfect for that job.
After taking a deep breath, you will focus your wind chakra inside of your lungs. Then you will exhale all that wind out in front of you, forming it into a wall of spinning air.

Yeah, I see what you mean with the arguments arising about using that jutsu for evading another jutsu. I assume it has something to do with the level of that low level wind technique and potentially the attack being evaded would be of a higher rank, therefore it would make it look as if you're nullifying the technique with one of lower ability. I'm not sure if I'm getting to the source but even so it doesn't matter, I'll take that note and avoid using it for that purpose. Also I'm glad you're happy with me sensei ^_^
Strong points
- The primary use for this technique seems to be defensive technique against projectiles and close ranged, taijutsu techniques. The thing with the taijutsu is, when dealing with a close ranged fighter, in the attempt of your opponent to use a critical technique, this simple jutsu could be used to keep them out of range of the attack.
- The wall of spinning winds, I assume, act like blades usable cut one's opponent if they were to get close enough for the winds to take affect. In the case where this technique could be used offensivly, one could set this technique up as a barrier containing one's opponent, meaning the winds are set up behind you're opponent while you are in front of them, they wouldn't be able to move and you could use another jutsu or utilize that technique as it is and force them back into the spinning winds.
- The last thing I could think of in terms of usefulness of this technique would be distancing, setting up the wall to deflect or stop your opponent, while they need to deal with that before hand, you could get yourself out of range or prepare for another attack. Basically, use this as a diversionary tactic.
- Good thing about this jutsu in terms of explaining it's weakpoints is that they're spelled out to a degree, doesn't mean it's good for the user of this technique. The first major weakness is the ability for the wall to be pushed back with greater winds, which would adversly affects the user of this jutsu because the wall would be pushed back towards them. This technique being genin level, means that chuunin level and above wind based attacks are all strong enough for your opponent to force it back.
- Second weak point in this jutsu is the use of projectiles laced with explosives. Although I don't see how one would have the sense to use this technique in the case where explosive based projectiles are tossed at you, however as a follow up to counter the technique one could throw a kunai with an explosive tag and ignite it.
- With smoke bombs, same as above except this time, it clouds the vision of the user of the technique and as I said before, blocking the line of sight is perhaps the most dangerous thing to a shinobi, our sight being one of the more primary of our senses in terms of rationalizing the events before us, blocking that could give your opponent more then ample time to decieve you with false images, or even get out of sight all together making you unaware of when or where the next attack is going to emerge from.
Ways to counter this technique Simply use a fire jutsu of any rank to force it's way through the serial spinning wall of winds, the weaknesses explained above, use an explosive tag to force ignition and force your opponent backwards or use their own jutsu to your advantage by applying a smoke screen. Use a jutsu that applies more preassure then then the walls can take, as it is wind, there is no solid factor, if the object has enough overall mass and velocity to penetrate, the winds will disperse to a degree.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
*I inhale from my diaphram, same as before, channelling my wind chakra up into my lungs. As I continue to inhale and my chakra travels through my body, I focus on the rotation of my chakra and invision the confining of the area to create the shape of a simple wall. I exhale the air from my mouth, the winds spinning and rotating and into a confined wall like shape*
Is this good sensei?
Flawless ^_^
Now this is the technique I was telling you about before.
First I'd like you to perform a powerful jump right into the air. As you go airborne you will take a deep breath like always and focus your wind chakra inside of your lungs. You will then release a steady stream of wind that will blow you back in any desired location, depending on where you mouth is facing.
After landing back onto the ground, I'd like you to inhale some air while focusing your wind chakra inside of your lungs. You will then release another steady stream of air. However this one will be aimed down at the ground in front of you to cause a dust cloud to rise to momentarily conceal your location.

-_-'' yeah I see, why use the other one when this technique is designed just for that purposexd
Strong points
- The primary use of this technique is evasion and what a better way to evade. When in the air, the difficulty in avoiding on coming attacks is higher, however this jutsu gives you the mobility in the air you wouldn't have otherwise.
- As this technique gives you freedome of direction, almost to the point as if you were planted on the ground, you could use this technique to change your direction and not just for evading attacks but for concealing yourself. Example, say you jump up straight to avoid an attack and there is large tree with leaves and branches thick enough for you to hide in towards your left, you could use this jutsu to blow yourself into the midst of the tree and conceal your movements.
- Lastly, the definition defined within the jutsu allows you to conceal your movements by kicking up dust with the wind (should you shoot off from the ground). Similar to the other technique this provides you cover for you.
- Despite the added freedom of mobility within the air, this could be used to you're opponant's advantage should should he have hid a trap or expected you to use this, although this is a shot that is rare.
- In the case where you're outnumbered; either in a team battle and you've been isolated, summons, clones. You may be able to change direction but your opponent(s) could immediantly follow up with another attack.
- This justu also leaves you suseptible of projectiles are thrown to you with added explosives where, pending on how long the stream is, if the projectiles gets close enough to you, it could still ignite even if kept out of immediant range of the weapon and explode, which will mess up your equilibrium (sorry I can't spellxd)
Combinations-strategies Simply put, my favorite strategy since I'm a sneaky little bastard, would be to use this jutsu to quickly hide within a large cover of some sort like a thick tree or tall stalks (depending on the cover provided) and then I would follow up with a diversion such as creating clones to be sent our or casting a genjutsu and then while they deal with that I could attack lethally.
Ways to counter this technique Throw kunai laced with powerful explosives which would pose strong enough to blow you off your course and have your winds dispersed and your equilibrium skewed. A powerful fire jutsu or stronger winds to combat the stream, have a back up plan such as clones or summons who could immediantly pick up the slack and attack from another direction.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
*Using my sexy strong thighs, I jump into the air, while simultaniously inhaling air into my nose. As I reach my terminal velocity in the air, I begin to exhale my wind; first, turning my head to my left and blow myself to the right, then I blow to the left, guiding me to the right and finally I blow upwards which accelerates me down. The moment I touch the ground I blow down at an angle and a large amount of dust arises, covering a field between myself*
