I started to kiteski this year and it sooo sick. I was out with a bunch of my boarder friends jamming this past weekend. I am the photographer in the group so I didn't get pics of me, but I thought the pics turned out pretty good.

Is it easier to do rails/jump up onto them with the kite? Do falls hurt, or are they sort of slowed by the kite?
That's really cool.

Crashing hurts and we have the bruises to prove it. Only bummer with kiting is if you don't let go of the power to kill the kite, you will just get tea bagged into shit. so always let go of the bar if you are beyond recovering.

Here is some youTube videos of kiteskiing in general for those who are not sure what you can all do kiteskiing.

You can boost huge air and blast around whenever you get more then 10 mph of wind. He had guy's on ice skates with GPS going faster then 50mph across the lake....F'n nuts.
