Looks like fun.... but like so many extreme sports... "Kids - don't try this at home"! I had a patient who came in after a hard fall - yes, water can be "hard" when you get 30 or 40 feet up! His fractured rib punctured his lung, He recovered to kite surf again, after five days in the hospital with a chest tube....
Very true (though I wouldn't call it an extreme sport) a kite surfer died in Devon that day! RIP.
