KITE SURFING


This is an extreme sport that I have always been extremely fascinated with, and if it wasn't for the ridiculously high equipment costs and the fact that I don't live anywhere near an ocean, I would so be flying around in the air! This is the ultimate combination of normal longboard surfing and windsurfing. There are few activities in the world that can take man closer to true flight without any engine power. Kite surfing uses the power of the wind and the natural ramps that are the waves to create an ever changing skate park in the ocean. This video is very epic and it includes all forms of kite boarding and not only kite surfing from all over the world including the now world famous kite surfing beach in Cape Town, Blouberg. Pay careful attention to the hang time that some of these guys get.
