Hello everybody,

I'm new to this forum and am thinking of taking up kiteboarding or windsurfing. I'm skater and I surf too so I'm thinking it may help a little?

Just wondering where I need to start? I have some surfer mates that windsurf too they are trying to get me into windsurfing, they say kiting is like body boarding is to surfing and it's more of a metro sexual type sport. I just thought kiting looked like it would be easier, less expensive etc is it?

Any advice would be appreciated.
