So the wind today at Brighton was slightly offshore, as it often is on a Northerly yet a few new and or inexperienced kiters still decided to kite.

Hopefully when we all were taking those important kiting lessons we took notice of:

1. Don't kite in offshore winds or yes you will have to swim into the bay to get your drifting Board/Kite and you will place yourself in danger and others that may try to assist you.
2. Kite with a buddy never by yourself.

There are more and more examples of this occurring. Lets keep the sport safe.
