Kiteboarding

[SLED2SHRED]

Well I have been tired off waiting for the start of my kiteboarding career, so a few days ago I bought some new gear. So I'm set for water and snow. I am wondering if any other snowesters do this as well. The fall winds are the best around here and I ready to ride any day it blows.

This is off Jetty Island in the port of Everett

this is on snow off the internet

I do ride around here on the water. Haven't gotten good enough to boost big air though as I was just too busy to ride much for the last year or so. Kiteboarding is a great way to fill the chitty October-November blues....lots of good wind and rainy days to get splash around. It is a killer rush when you're buzzing along in 20kt winds and you're flying along. Its even better to take your gear on vacation with you to somewhere like the bahamas where there is a lot of shallow water places to ride and the water is so beautiful....!

Is there a school for newbies that want to try this? Looks like a blast.

waterdawg - if you're in the Seattle area there is a Company that does beginner lessons at Golden Gardens Park (Shilshole Marina area). Google seattle kiteboarding and I'm sure you'll get the info you need. If you're down south WA go to Hood River.
