I dont understand why kite???
Why pay a $1000 dollars for a bag that you can rip really easy with your finger nails???
Why kite with razor sharp lines???
why did naish become a kiter???
why kite with ya mumas pants over ya wet suit???
why kite in 35 knots when you can windsurf???
why would ya want to kite when ya cant, cause its 30 knots off shore???
why would ya kite when ya cant at ya local gusty lake thats full of windsurfers, cause the bag wont stay in the air.
why would ya kite and think your so cool, cause ya can skim over sand bars and reefs in 2 foot of water, when you can do the same thing on a jp quad???
but Ginger pom, why did you take up kiting as well?? no dont go back to the kite forums, answer me?? i want answers??
kiting with a go- pro is crap, you have no where to stick it. you can only stick one on ya helmet or ya kite which is miles from you....
the wind range is crap too you can kite in light wind but only really slow and its not even worth jumping cause ya cant get much air... so its really got the same wind range as a windsurfer.. kiting is only fun when its like 15 knots i was told by a local kiter...
And if its gusty you have to stay home, cause gusts make kiting so crap...
I once saw a kite dude out with his mate and he was having a cool time when all of sudden his kite fell from the sky and went smack on the water. The wind vannished, so he could not water start, it was a big kite, so he had to drift it in all the way from miles out in the bay. At least on a windsufer with a big sail you can still windsurf in slowly...
I am not surprised at this! the truth is for a 'quickie' it can be done in lite to heavy conditions with the minimum amount of time.. going back to the basics of sailing is still in windsurfing different high..
