Ahh, that's a good point. If the winds were offshore than another kiter going out would just add to the risk.ThickAir wrote:...By the way, for the OP, I would have kited over to you if I were out. If I were on the beach and it was off-shore winds, no way would I kite out to you. Next thing you know, there may be 2 kiters facing a long swim in.
Should have called for help, though, if this was a location where boats/skis could be found.
So that raises a question...what if you're out there, swimming in, but clearly far out. Your friends see you in trouble and hire a jet ski to go out and get you. Are you going to pay the $100 for the ski when they get you or will you be saying, "I'm not paying for that, I was swimming in just fine on my own!"
Ahhh, the questions to consider...
