Flame suit on here ready to be grilled
Maybe if freestyle or waves or slalom were the format people may be a little more supportive - course racing - IMHO as skilled as it is 2 km off a harbour doesn't make for a great spectacle for an Olympic sport maybe its time for a change - its certainly one Olympic event I don't look out for

For mine this is not the spirit of the Olympics. If you want a spectacle then watch the many shows based on extreme sports. The Olympics have always been about beating your peers in a physically and technically challenging sport, which is exactly why windsurfing should be included. There will be very little gained from a visual perspective running kites, they will not be doing jumps and having fun, they will be course racing just like all the other yachting events.

Kiteboard course racing....now ive heard it all

Cant wait to see some close racing....should be kites tangled up everywhere

Follow this link more closely on the general windsurfing site. There is a lot of good feedback there.

May be a stupid suggestion?? Why not do both!!??? Then they can have some good on water antics between kiters and windsurfers!! would be more interesting to watch!
