Rules should be respected.
Better than a closed spot.
Crandon is great, I really like the spot.
Once you did it you know the rules.

If you don't have IKO 3 just go there and show them your level and they will give you a card, no problem at all.

I hope Dimitri did the jumps for the video. If not, this is really bad and he should have taken off the water, like everyone else who would have done this.

Why do they require people to bodydrag in/out? (It's much easier/faster to clear that corridor riding on the board)
Florida has the most shark attacks of almost any other place.
Why force people to be shark baits?

Pretty shallow water there, no sharks.

Body dragging is slower and more controlled I guess.

Who's dick is Miami Kiteboarding sucking to get this monopoly? Fucking ridiculous. How does one obtain exclusive rights to a public beach? Guess there must be some profit sharing with a shot calling public official???

Doesn't sound like fun.

Are they charging a fee as well?
