I like tophats classic response to when he gashed his head open and the doc asked what he was doing when it happened (it is on utube if ya wanna search)
"I surf, and just use a kite to tow me back out to get more waves, and no, no straps."
not really a question but i laughed..
i was "inside" the stupid yellow markers at peli point today, and some bird watchers told me to **** off, so i was like why? im not killing any birds, then they said i scare them away.... so i asked them how they dont scare them away too so i can do whatever they do to not scare the birds.
then
they told me my kite looked like a raptor and the birds were scared of it...
wtf is a raptor
some kind of dinosaur or something... anyway i laughed at them and kited off and tried to stay outa the markers but oh well it was funny as.
"Is it cold out there?"
"Do people normally fly 10's at Melville?"
At Melville guy looks down the beach a little and says "Looks like there is more wind getting in there!"
'You're pretty brave going out in that without straps'....when it's like 3 ft Scarbs
'What's the point of riding without straps, you can't jump'
'You must be a strong girl to be able to hold on to that'...haha
25-30 knts
Sand bag is on the kite ....some guy who was lurking around, picks up the bag ! and shouts
"What's this thing for mate ?"
"Is it true that you kiters think you are really cool and you think that the public thinks you are really clever?"
" Is it true that you spend your spare time reading and writing stupid posts on kite forums ?"
" Have you any idea how silly you look with your boardshorts on the outside of your wetsuit? "
What an awesome thread.
"is this a new thing? because i used to play around with it back in the seventies when it wasn't as popular! of course the kites were different back then!"
same guy; first....
"what happens when you have to let go of the strings" 
then; before I even had a chance....
"you must get really wet when when you fall off"
then; I didnt even bother
at Melville,
''is this fun?''
do you like adrenalin rushs, the pain and the elements of nature.....
"how do you do when the wind doesn't blow?"
we don't,we talk about it .........
''do you need lessons?''
most defenetly yes .......
''do you need a board or you do that barefoot?''
the board help
''should you know how to swim?''
it really helps when you are in trouble.....and i know what i'm talking about. lol
at Kitejam,
'' where can i get lessons for paragliding?''
this is kitesurfing sir,,,,''
ok you sure it s not paragliding?''
i'm sure sir ........
"But when that thingy crashes, how will you breathe because your'e not wearing a lifejacket ???"
"With the snorkel in my wetsuit..."
"oh...okay"
In my experience, all time most repeated, far and away leader over every other stupid question: 'Is that fun?'
What do you think, genius? We do it for profit?
Flying my 3m foil on the beach, in my shorts and t-shirt, when the wind was cranking a little too much:
'Are you going to use that on the water?'
Sheesh.
not such a silly question .when the first wipis turned up and cost a small fortune we took our foils out 3 and 5 m and found the performance much better .Had developed good flying skills and didn't crash (well not much)
What happens when you pull on this? (question asked by someone in Saudi while at the same time pulling it which resulted in my kite looping and me getting dragged down the beach - if they didn't have the death penalty in Saudi I would have hunted him down)
Is the kite really heavy?? .....After walking up the beach with it one handed.
So its just foam inside then??? As i finished, and a handful of fully grown men stand slumped over a 10cm high pump.
Are you sure its not exactly the same as wakeboarding??
friday at Maroochy
can you land it on the ground when you are finished? followed by the ineviatable
"is it fun?"
Today at the beach having a swim then fixing a mates kite in the carpark, moderate offshore winds. Car pulls up out they jump, unpack everything start pumping up??????
Out comes the instruction booklets.........
Hi, do you know what youre doing?
Yes, Im fixing a mate's kite and not going out cause it's directly offshore.
LMAO
