NOW our sport is legit.
Is this the first time Bart has kitesurfed? Anyway, happened to catch this on a new episode;
VIDEO
(yes, the video quality is crappy, but watch it anyway before Fox blocks it. or wait for it on Hulu.)

Haha, yeah I was watching that and I flipped out.
Made me think of the images somebody posted a while back of some kids in some muddy village kite-skimming the mud with trashbag kites.

all unhooked and strap/boot-less
even on the slider
Bart is obviously way too cool for this or any on-line forum

No helmet on the rail slide, though.
Is this the kind of example we want to set for our youth?!?
