Kitesurfing is good, I'm a kite-buggier myself up here in Scotland.

I have done both, not been out for a while tho, It is great fun, but do get some lessons, the kites will hurt you if your not ready

I know the women's UK and European No 1 - she's pretty good.
Lots of it down here but too much kit for my liking and a few people have splattered themselves.

Looks great once sussed out though.

Our traitor Friend took it up cos its actually easier to transport then a windsurfer ,on the train - and he lives in landan now . He started the kite bit, practising without and then with 'mountain board' - on the parks up there.

Now hes mastered the kite hes on the board ( bit of practise there already) - and sails out of Shoreham quite a bit ( Surfladle for supplies) . I guess anywhere with on shore breeze and not too many buildings to wrap yourself round is feasible tho .
