After considering the funny side of these 2 incidents this morning I thought this thread may make for some interesting reading
whats yours

YOU KNOW YOU ARE ADDICTED WHEN ...
... you twist your ankle on a loose brick and your 1st & only thought through that exruciating pain is "God I hope this gets better before the breeze kicks in"
... your neighbour rings to say your house alarm just went off and the panic subsides 2 seconds later when you realise you have all your kite gear with you in the car

then theres this one that got a huge laugh on the beach a while back.

... the drop-dead gorgeous new blond in accounts asks you if you would like to join her for a drink after work and as you think of all those little green arrows you cant believe its your voice actually saying "Aargh sorry I'm a bit busy this avo"

you crash your car into a pole straining to look if anyone is out at your spot
first thing you do when you awake and at 10 min intervals following is check the wind
when the extent of your conversation is wind direction, recent moves and the best gear available on the market
family holidays are planned to kiting destinations during the on season

Yep i'm fully addicted but unfortunatly my wife isn't and am working on my daughter

your off uni, taking a break from work, have all the gear in the car ready to and you are stuck at home waiting, watching fireaway for the 5000 time because there is no wind. is this huey's idea of a bad joke??? it is december isn't it?

You just moved to sunny Perth, have been out there kitesurfing more in 3 months than in a year in Europe, and still, everytime that arrow turns green, you just have to be out there.

You move all the way across the country, alone, to a place where you know barely anyone, and leave everything and everyone you've ever known behind: for better wind.

Is that the same as being at a strip club and wondering if the strippers kiteboard to keep fit?

...and if so, where, and do they kiteboard nude?...
