get used to it awe. outside auckland and christchurchs theres pretty much only one or 2 land based kiters per town/area.

the disadvantage. not one to enjoy the stoke with.

the advantage you can pretty much go where you want and no one cares. infact they point and smile even old grannies want a go!.

Are yes one day I will be there, the moment of passing that first blo kart turning toward them and doing the two finger salute (peace side up of course) and as for now I dont think I am worthy of to many public exhibitions as wind will die and buggys will break!! lol On a good note I have purchased a radsails buggy to get used to it as my big monster likes making blood squirt from peoples eyes when on top of them so 13kg is a bit easier to crawl away from underneath as to the 40kg+ Big Sumo.... One day Ill visit the long beaches and have a go but maybe winter by then and ill have to cancel the weekend Ping Pong tournaments lol

Did someone mention Board? Well yes Ive been checking out a few and I am close to a purchase so may have a broken arse before to long and then I can go back to a comfy buggy I suppose! are there any issues or board sizes that I should be looking out for?

What are you planning on buying?

Boards are awesome! Toss em in the back of the car and bring them out for a quick session or whatever!
