Funny,,,,,,, The few kiters i know and have met are very nice.
Decent, respectful and responsible people.

None of them feels the need to get involved with this ego boosting.
Real surfers/windsurfers/kiters/SUP'ers/WATERMEN and WOMEN, no matter what their chosen discipline are too busy living it to get involved with the self adoration and ego massage that goes on.

REAL PEOPLE WHO ARE CONFIDENT IN THEMSELVES AND CONTENT WITH WHO THEY ARE,,,,,,"LIVE AND LET LIVE"

When a few sad "wanna be watermen" get overexcited with themselves they want to shout to the world, "Hey look at me! Look at what i'm doing! Check out how amazing I am"

Let's let them be the way they are.
When i read the rubbish these trolls post here i feel sad for them.

They just don't get it.
They never will.

why is it all the kiters troll on windsurf forums and to my records no windsurfer to date has on theres? i think the reason they put up such a strong fight is because deep down they know windsurfing is better, poor boys. its ok i understand you boys

In answer to Kiting Casey's thread "is it true what they say about windsurfers" that just got deleted:

Yes it is true what they say about Windsurfers feeling sorry for their boardies over their wetsuit wearing, illiterate kiting cousins (not in the blood relation sense though)

All i can say now is us windsurfers were here before all you guys and alot of windsurfers were sailing when you guys were in nappies. so we should have first say to who owns the beach.

This case is now closed

Oooh missed it. Was it really rude? I don't suppose it was about religion or politics.
Was the spelling and grammar acceptable or was it written by a webel without a cause. Ooooh those iwesponsible waskally webels make me vewy angwy.

Surfingboyo,
Glad we men could help a boy.
See, coming out of the closet wasn't so hard after all. - nothing to be embarassed about wanting to kite - it's uber cool.

What tipped the scales for you? Must have been caption comp #59

Have fun decorating the float for the parade.

Windsurfing in WA was not just good today - it was great. Stonking 30 knots plus. Not much west in the south of it so even Dutchies was going off. Tabletops and loops (not by me mind!). Woo hoo.

I counted about a dozen windsurfers out, and more rigging up, but just one solitary kiter downwind. Clear what rules at 25 knots plus, and whats gey!

well windwarning its all 'on sale' here given the GFC - the whole state just fell off a cliff last September - so you should be able to pick a cheapo airfare and get a big bargain somewhere - just tell em I said so

(why else would i have time to sail in the middle of a weekday, but for the fact that I should be otherwise gainfully employed)

Spotty, that's awesome. You b@$t@rd.

I reckon before people are allowed to "progress" to the "superior" sport of kiting, there should be a mandatory requirement that they complete a forward loop on a windsurfer first. Because kiting is so cool and hardcore.
