As any kiter been injured by a croc in australia?
I kited in places there are crocs like the rivermouth at yorkeys near the cairns airport.
I kited in the daintree river mouth once (I'm crazy yes) it's a great speed spot, with a super long straight line of super flat water, with perfect angle to the wind.
I kited in Sasia, near cap york, with offshore wind.
I wont do that again except for yorkeys.
Never seen any crocs except in the zoo.
has a kiter ever been attacked by a shark???
never heard of any,
body dragging back to your board would have to look alot like a sick injured seal or fish.
And I thought there was enough to worry about with hoop snakes rolling down the beach through the rigging area...
I personally think that wearing crocs makes you look like dumbass, even if you believe you are a supercool, egomaniac, uber kiter!!!
As far as crocs attacking people, I've not heard of any incidence of that happenning, but I have it under good authority that they start to stink like sh#t after prolonged wear!!!
Bottom line: Don't do it dude. Even if you over weight, wagon driving mates reckons it's all the rage!!!![]()
crocs are great, can you find shoes cheaper than that, 5 bucks at coles, they last longer than any other tongs, they are more comfortable than everything, they are great for walking long distances.
they look bad ok. but I wear a board short over my wet suit so its ok
How Studip can ya get

Kite "ON" the croc
your safety line is to tie the jaws up !!!
Jeez not many fallas are brite

Hey Gumby
1. buy a "Go Joe" for your board - the wind will blows it to you for a quick take off, none of the weaving crap to get up wind or chased by croc jellies.
cheers
Stingers out at moment (few boys been stung latley) but dont see allot of crocs, either that or we choose to ignore!? see more sharks and rays at the moment
