I'm scared that if Alex comes to Melbourne he'll try kite Albert Park lake or the Yarra river and get kiting banned here.

As for Sydney - I am sure I have seen a good number of kites dropped on the road / powerlines due to folks kiting in puddles

Remember kiddies we were all kooks once upon a time...

I agree, looks like fun, that's one of the best things about kite surfing, being innovative and kiting wherever you can, snow, land, water! As long as we keep it safe, the world is our playground!
