Kitesailing or kiteboating group ?   Message List

Re: [ksurf] Kitesailing or kiteboating group ?

Peter's cat is more like a "water buggy". Why should one use a "water
buggy" instead of a small or large kiteboard ??? On the other hand, a
tandem water buggy may be useful in teaching the beginner about
kitesailing before kitesurfing ...

"Don's 100m2 LEI and a big cat with a crew of half a dozen" is more
like kiteship or kiteboat.

The pictures were taken by Erik Aeder and article written by Tom James
in the Aug-Sept Kiteboarding magazine.

Don claims that he can water relaunch the "beast" with a 5th line...

P.S., What happens to Peter's original water buggy that he used at
Adelaide in 1999 (I like that one better) ?

Hung.
