Hi Greg

Yes kite surfing is great, i used to do it in Thailand (Koh Samui) when i finished being a Dive instructor on Koh Phi Phi, once you have your head around the wind window and power on / Flare kite to power off, as well as your feet positioning on the board its a great feeling to be pulled across the sea and up large waves!

(Airush kite was what i used in Thailand in 2005 - Kiteboarding Thailand, Thailand Kitesurfing schools, kite thailand, Kiteboarding school hua hin, Kitesurf school koh samui, Kiteboarding school pattaya, Kitesurfing school phuket, Kiteboarding school chumphon, kite IKO in Thailand, kitesurfing Asia -)

Give it a try you ll love it.

Regards
Phil
