Look how small the arena is - if you f*ck up a kite loop you may end up in the lap of the audience member - if she's hot it may be worth it Laughing

i watched this on tv once... pretty crazy... there's a wall of fans, and they just shoot out into the pool perpendicular to them....then they do all this freestyle stuff... i think i even saw a race once.

yea they hold them in europe at the london boat show and such. It's pretty sweet actually, they put out a kicker for the freestyle stuff and they do slalom races with a roll in. there's a segment of it in The Windsurfing Movie.
