Hi I'm a windsurfer and there are often kiters at the breaks where I sail.

Just wanted some advice for protocol/manners when passing. How close can we pass?

Is it a problem to fly your kite higher as we pass (as seems to be the usual way things happen when windsurfer is downwind)?

Anything else I should be aware of? (other than that windsurfing is gay and i should get a kite etc etc. boring.)

I want to improve the stoke on the water between all wave riders so a little education will help.

Thanks!
