Orlando Bloom, Adam Sandler, Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, Avril Lavigne, Jason Mraz, Prince William, Prince Harry, Barack Obama, and Sam Branson (Richard's son).

These were reported. Some probably just took a lesson and aren't repeat offenders.

I ran into the actor (Pirates movies) Orlando Bloom at the Hawaiian Island store on Maui and heard him say that he should try it so I handed a brochure on lessons to him and talked to him - didn't recognize him. We returned home and one of those Hollywood star TV shows showed him on Kite Beach holding a kite and saying he took lessons.

I would loved to give obama a lesson. I would wait for the perfect day, perfect direction and make sure to put him on the perfect kite. Lets say blowing at least 40knt, at least a 17m kite , and definitely dead offshore.
