"Why do windsurfers and kiters both have forums on the same website?"
The only thing these sports have in common, is water.


I can think of plenty of things in common: love of the ocean, love of the wind, the rush of nailing a wave, being out in the elements, tweaking your gear for best performance ... and on and on .. I can think of more in common, than not in common.
Boogie boards, shortboards, longboards, sup, windsurfing, kitesurfing - we all get a kick out of riding waves, just different vessels.
I've kited/windsurfed with packs of windsurfers & kiters. I surf. I SUP.
A wave hog is a wave hog. No matter what sport he's doing.
It comes down to the individual, not the "group"
Why does everybody generalise about everything?


I have great mates in all these sports. It's up to us as individuals to get past the "pack hate" mentality, and understand there are pinheads in every sport in the world.
