I've been thinking over Saturday and I kind of realized what happened. All spring its been very few windsurfers and most kiters on Cape beaches. Saturday,...
I lost my jimmylewis picklefork at nahant a few weeks ago when my leash came off it. It was a s.e. wind and probably drifted onto lynn beach. It's got my email...
I saw a guy crash his kite onto some cars at West Denis on Sunday. He's part of the same group of guys that were causing problems at P-Bay a couple weeks back....
I GUESS HE DOESN'T GET IT. HE IS A BAD KITER. Why don't they stay up at P-Bay and ruin it for you guys. He puts the kite up in a crowd of people, launching ...
Hi guys, what is happening in West Dennis is becoming a problem in many other local beaches. This is an issue that will soon involve every beach/location in...
Dennis, It's good to see one us getting all emotional. Maybe I should take a course in assertiveness training. But I think it takes more then one person....
Good call Enzo, this weekend we saw a bit of the future at our local beach, and it was something to worry about. It was the first weekend where it was warm...
Thanks Lane, of course Tristatekites can and will help to the extent we can; becoming a PASA certified and insured kitesurfing school is part of this but again...
Couldn't agree more guys. Yesterday was a good example here too. I saw some young kids with a kite, probably thinking kiting is "cool" after seeing it in...
Enzo, while we may not all be able to go right out and get a teaching certification like you have, perhaps if we all got and had these PASA cards with us...
Man its so nice to be in Maui and not have to worry that the favorite kite spots are under direct fire anymore. We can now kite everywhere here, except...
I would say that their is a lot to be learned from the Hawaii guys they have been thru this before, and as Mike said they will probably have some solutions,...
Anyone pick up a prolimit kite-waist harness on sunday at west dennis. I was parked just upwind of the windsurfing demo. It had a snap shackle with some blue...
Scott, you are absolutely right. A Pasa membership wich includes liability insurance could go a long way with local authorities. Of course there is no need to...
Okay, so how should we start? I'm all for a New England association to start. I'm intent on reading up about how the HKA and other groups were formed and what...
Here some initial info Jim, I got it from the AKA site and gives a brief overview of a typical local kitesurf association. I have also contacted Rick Iossi who...
Hi all, First a big thanks to Rick Iossi who has provided quite a bit of helpful information which will help a great deal. Second we need to come up with a...
Thanks Enzo, Yes, I will definitely help out. I've spoken with other folks who are interested as well. We just need a plan. Dennis Lent did put together a...
Enzo, I'm in. Whatever I can do, just let me know, you know where to find me! BTW, John came home with some nice Hydro's last night! Please call or email me...
It's a wonderful idea to have a nice kite association like the ones in Hi and Fla., but genereally speaking, where does that really get you? Rick Iossi has...

I dont know if was the same incident, but the guy was pumping up a Wipika Airblast with a Scuba tank and had an inexperianced launcher trying to help. The...
... blueprint! Their needs to be a organization that can be contacted for when local officals need a voice for discussion. The organization needs some...
Was that what the tank was for – insane! I don't think those guys were local. I've windsurfed and visited here many years and have never seen them before....
Phil, First, congradulation on the move! Looking forward to kiting with you. Now onto the crap.I'm all for forming an organization and will be the first to...
I'm ready to help out in any way especially any graphic needs. It's getting apparent that these organizations need to be more localized. The guys in West...
I'm in LAne. I agree that the problems while universal, need to be delt with locally! There's no reason to re-invent the wheel though. Maybe a NEKS group with...

Looks like we have some solid support here, thanks guys. All that has been mentioned in recent mails (and future correspondence) will be taken in consideration...
Phil, I thought about this option (AKA and PASA memeberships) but believe we can only be effective against bans and restrictions as an actual association. If...
Hey Enzo, Hold on, you are moving too fast. Let us decide before you go organizing everything. I don't see everybody agreeing that some huge organization is...
