Might be they see all these wannabys down the beach thinking
there killing it, kiting with there surfboards in 1 foot slop. hardly a impressive sight.

Not to mention you watch a vid of some pro kiters on surfboards in the surf and it
just turns you off when you compare to real surfing.

dosent inspire me anyhow, just my thoughts.


Man, I saw a few dudes at Scarbs yesterday on strapped surfboards in 30 knots and they were seriously nailing the onshore slop (up to 3 foot). The style has come a long way, and the standard is rising rapidly. I find it very inspiring.

I will add that upwind wave riding doesn't do much for me.

yeah the photo of you is so inspiring and this kind of stuff is totally crappy and uninspiring
who'd wanna go there anyway with that yukky dirty grey water



this one's really horrible and like my daughter just said 'kitesurfing's kind of cheating anyway"



my apologies to all the people that are totally turned off by this kind of rubbish and are now vomiting their christmas lunch all over granny

lots of my surfer mates are slowly coming around, its a long wait in between drinks for surfers, the last thing we want is for the masses to get into it.....imagine the carnage!

I say wear ya jocks over your wettie an try an look kooked out as possible so it dont look to cool an tell em how hard it is an scare them off with some injury stories an if they are still interested.....well maybe,just maybe let them in on the secret.
