Sunny, cool--65 deg, winds about 20 and a bit holey due to storms off to

I have some questions regarding the comparison of kiting to windsurfing. First, let me say, I have never tried kiting and it looks like fun. I say “to each...
I would venture the following: (as a non-kiter) Pros: For low wind venues, kiting will give you lots more TOW. You can fit just about all the kite gear you...
