Today's Lesson - Find an open area to surf

One of the first things I learned about kite boarding was that it is really important to be aware of your surroundings.  On our first trip to the lake my teacher was quick to identify the nearest power lines, thin ice areas on the lake and large trees.  His point know your surroundings and carry a knife.  I didn't really grasp the importance of that until a few days later when I came across this video:

   Check out the sequence around 1:30 as this snow kiteboarder gets his kite stuck over a pavilion and rips a whole in it (Screen shots below)-

Houston we have a problem

A whole new twist on the sport- Tree climbing kite boarder

Never a good thing!

That's going to hurt your resale value.

This video was from youtube.  Motzzy has a lot of great snowboarding videos and is a pretty good boarder from the looks of it.  Check out Motzzy's channel
