Hmmmm... seeing as I'm bored at work tonight, I thought I might just google traverse city kiteboarding. So much imformation on the net. Anyways I found this store for you
www.broneah.com/ I have no idea if they are good at what they do, but their website looked functional. lots of pictures. Bright colours. Anyways... Maybe get in contact with them, they could probably tell you all about what equiptment you should be using. Now got to find other ways to ammuse my self for 13 more hours
