Session Alert

New to KiteSurfies.com is Session Alerts. This enables riders to quickly share realtime riding conditions with their friends.

To get setup so you can get alerts or set alerts via your Cell Phone or Computer, visit the Session Alert Web Site and Join up.

Once you join up, here's how it works. When you get to the launch area or if you just happen to be driving by the lake and you see white caps, report it with your cell phone.

Anyone that is within distance of that location (part of your setup) will be immediately notified with an alert.

Like I said, this is all new to us so let's give it a go and see how it works.

Don't try this at home ... Expert demonstration [Mike]

You see a lot of people enter the KiteSurfing arena. Sadly enough many exit shortly thereafter. Watching those with experience makes the sport look so easy, you know, like watching a Pro play a guitar. Man, looks can be so deceiving can't they. Time after time you see people try a kite for the first time and within seconds the kite slams into the ground. So predictable are the newbies that you need to be sure to only allow them to use a small kite, a very small kite the first time out. For some strange reason it feels so natural for newbies to steer the kite like you are driving a car. Sorry, it ain't no car, its more of a push pull than a rotation. Don't give up! Just like the guitar, with a little practice you'll be flying in no time but like the guitar you'll need a lot of practice to get it down. One word of warning, once you get the feel of the kite you'll be hooked. Welcome to the addiction. Yes, it's like a drug but it will become the most healthy adiction you'll ever see.

What is kitesurfing?

Riding a board, flying a big ole kite.

Going Back and Forth, Up and Down

in ocean waves or mirror flat ponds

I am lifted, mind and body, by the wind.

The only limits are the shoreline,

my knowledge of the equipment,

along with my imagination, skill,

and courage.

When I first started

I was literally going wherever the wind took

me. As I learned more about it I made the

wind take me where I wanted.

I hook in and harness natures power.

Controlling the uncontrollable.

Whether I really am or not,

its exhilarating either way.

Kitesurfing is a problem eraser.

A washing machine for the brain.

Escape from whatever is bothering me.

Its freedom, and its a gift.
