"Hey I saw you kitesurfing it looks like fun. Can I buy a board and kite from you, here's $25"
"What? You say it costs more than $25. Ok then I'll rent it, here's $5."
"What are you talking about I can't rent it without taking lessons first. Well, I have five minutes before I have to leave. Why don't you give me the lesson now? I saw you out there doing it, so I am pretty sure I know how to do it."
"Hours of lessons that cost more than $5? You must be kidding, I never had to do this when I rented a canoe. Just forget it."

i use to teach Windsurfing, Sailing (12-18ft) wake boarding and water skiing and none of them took a few minutes to learn nor was it 5 bucks to teach, so i don't understand where you're going with this. All the other waters sports comes with cost.

Honestly! I hope the sport stays being expensive and hard to learn. We don't need those kinds of people in the sport!
