Busiest day of the year and these tryhards decide to set up in the middle of people sunbaking, kite through crowds of swimmers and then, to top it off, crash the kite on the beach, pop it and then have the flapping mess hit some kids.

These guys were not euros for what it is worth. Next beach down was deserted...

I wish I had my knife with me (to cut some lines)

Is this just a eWinge, or did you tell him to go to the other beach in person as well?

'Pulse', when I see the same, I go over and say something. You're not going to change or educate people posting on a forum after the event. Chances are they probably don't read here anyway. Don't be scared..

No offence mate but we've gotta police things ourselves if we want beaches to stay open.

Is it possible that you say the same without mentionning that they were not euros?
Really?

Probably those evil poleys, they'll do anything to get kiting banned!

Did this occur on the beach with the pontoon (unacceptable), dog beach (totally unacceptable) or further down (OK, if not near people i.e. >50m)? However, talking to them might have been a more direct way of dealing with this.

^^^ there are also alot of people who do the right thing. It's just that we get wind over here more wind = more wanna be kiters = more incidences
