What the yanks want the yanks get - its no wonder everybody wants to blow them up.
Interesting read - very.
People who have done both think it is a dumb decision and those in the know say the vote has strange aspects to it. Hmmmm
I think with the pressure from some big names we will end up with both sports in.
That was a good read. The more I learn about it the more of a "fiasco" it appears to be..I reckon kitesurfing is a great sport, but I dont think kitesurf racing is ready for the Olympics.There's my two cents worth.

The last laugh will come in when they show the "One design" kite kit which is required for Olympic sail racing and everyone goes "WTF is that?"
UM Elmo one design is not required for kite racing
maybe the other classes will follow
thats it no one knows anything so how did they vote !!!!
and then come out and say we made a mistake, we didnt know what we voted for
^^^^ Only the ISAF has voted to put it up. IOC still needs to decide and format is undecided.
