how more core and all round awesome would kiteflying be if there was no cheating. e.g. sending your kite before you crash to avoid hard landing.

The question here is from whom point of view:
the "crowd" sitting on the beach, with a beer in their hands, watching at the "poor bugger" getting hurt,
the ambulance crew getting bothered to get you to the hospital,
or yourself in pain?

Sorry God, but in the past this kind of behaviour had a name: masochism.

And I think the insurance is not covering “self inflicted” accidents.

I still think the majority of us, wants to live happy, and healthy, whilst having fun on the water.

Cheers.

From an extreme point of view, yes the sport would be more "core" because there would be more of a risk involved in attempting manouvers, but as far as sales of gear and life of the sport as a whole i think it would quickly spiral towards self anihalation. Also gear improvements would be few and far between as it would not have the market backing to sustain such R and D development.
My two cents Dave.
