| Kite Boarding, Kite Surfing, or Kite Skiing is a new extreme sport that I some how got talked into trying out. The idea is to stand on a wake board with foot straps, and use the power of a huge kite to propel yourself across the water. Well after two rounds of lessons I still never even saw a board, but had a blast doing "body drags". |

I got a real big dog at the end of this leash. Luckily winter and a lack of wind have saved me from any more lessons, maybe next year I'll actually get to the board in Kite Boarding. |
