What's the point in doing a handlepass?

You wont see them surfing waves if your not on waves your self, but waves and kites dont really work anyway do they and you wont see jumps if you never go out when its over 15 knots and if dangling from a string isnt a jump .

... when your kiting.

They're just so relaxed and peaceful.
Zig zagging back and forth.
No 25m high lines to get in the way.
You can have 20 windsurfers in the line up and it all works, add one other kiter to it and its f'ed.

Thanks for being you...



But just one question, whats the point of windsurfing....????
The ones I ever see don't do jumps, don't surf waves, but just go back and forth cropping...

And i thought he was going to tell me something about ther origional one design and the history of windsurfing

Interesting observation ,

You can bet one thing... one two or three or more of those windsurfers will be finken why play amoungst us when then theres so much room down wind

Secondly.... funny that.... 20 windurfers can interact on the water with little fuss ,put 20 kites in the same spot and you got a recipe for a tangle and a dangle etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc etc

I would say
Be stokes these windsurfers put up with your antics, flying your strings around them

As for what manouvers you perceive as good bad or indifferent or dont see,, get over it because everything your doing aint that flash on the eye.

Not everyone is intrested in skimming and being boosted involenteraly or loosing the knife from the butter.

Question
Why is it you think windsurfers dont / are not getting the same buzz as you on the water

favourite spots: Illawara Coast, NSW, Australia

Sports: Kitesurfing and Banter

Favourite Spots: Anywhere where theres old windsurfers to stir.

Here is Surfingboye the other day.

I windsurf to get out to islands off the nth qld coast, or take my kids out for a spin up the front and sometimes use as a sup or paddleboard. Can't do any of that on a kite but see why people would kite - looks awesome.

This kiting v windsurf thing is a little sad. They are both very much fringe activities with small followings. Unless the sport is managed better than windsurfing, popularity will probably taper off eventually as the people age, have kids or so something more important.
