A dieing breed really. Out at Wello on Sunday and at least 20 others. I dont know about Manly or Vic PT, but there were also quite a few down the coast. Only saw a handful of kites out. The sport IMO has seen a bit of a resurgence recently.

Dying? Its the kities as far as I know that are dropping dead - lofted, dragged, dropped, shredded, n stung t death by jellies. Maybe its some sort of evolutionary process. After all the carnage the only kiters left will have truly superior genes. Then they can claim to be "cool" ... errr hang on, cool has nothing to do with superior genes. Its more to do with purile values. No, the claim the survivers can make is "We're kn tough". Go fer it.

well i seen kiting taking off a few years ago, but some reason it is no where near as strong as it was from 2000-2003 and quite funny how some went from windsurfing to kiting then all of a sudden there back on the windsurfing gear !!!!!!!!!
love watching the kiters rip into it but when they suck - DAMM THEY SUCK !!!!!!!
i was keen to give kiting a go but seeing so many return to windsurfing made me have second thoughts !!!!
also i once in a while have to help some amateur kiters set up or hold the kite or do what ever to get them onto the water !!!!!!
just not attracted to it much any more !!!!!
