I've seen the same 3 guys several times in the Mandeville harbor over the past month. Looks like a freaking blast, I'd love to get into it, but have no idea where to even start.

Everyone I know that does it now have knee problems from jumping. So if you do it, don't jump.

Start with a small kite first or there will be a video of your arse getting dragged face first across the sand/parking lot/ marsh/ etc.

I used to go sit at a bar in SC on the beach and watch new kite boarders get dragged face first down the beach while drinking my daiquiri.

Used to watch those frickers catch 30 foot + air off Venice Beach in Cali. No way in hell I'm signing up for that intentionally.

I almost signed up for it on my trip to the Keys in March, but it's a whole day of training and they recommended two. Couldn't take that much time out of a trip to learn something I would rarely do again.

I think it looks like a blast though
