The US was a country that valued truth, science, diversity, law and its institutions that reflected and promoted those values. Their representative for a year is the most destructive Homo (Sapiens?) in the history of the world.

The United States is one of the most warm and welcoming countries I’ve ever lived. It accepts and tolerates race and cultures from all over the world. I don’t get why the media continues to bash its own country and current leader. You want to see see real racism go to Asia, you want to see true misogyny go to the Middle East.

There are some things the US cannot tolerate and that is people who cheat the system and ruin it for those who follow the rules (law), hence the reason for “building the wall.”

Exactly!!! well said..

No politics please, I have seen it destroy other forums. We are all here for our love of kiting not the daily bullcrap that pollutes the airwaves.

I am glad Tobby is not from the USA or I would be afraid that angry Mexicans would be expelled (or not allowed to talk politics)

to many people on the water, and this kiteschools sending their students into the crowd....this is dangerous to everybody and it is impossible for them to improve ...it´s even hard for experienced riders to ride so how the hell should a beginner get along ?? in my opinion it´s a rip off but people are so impatient and the media is telling them you can learn to kite in 1-2 weeks ....yes maybe ride but there is more than riding ...there are other people, wind , water, ....it just takes time specially if you have never dealt with the ocean and the wind before....

Being alone on so many awesome days, definitely the worst :(

Selflaunching and landing in any wind is easy, but finding others to ride with when conditions are "top", are often the most difficult and I dont like it, eventhough used to it, and of course prefer top conditions alone, over a social session many out, in the crappiest conditions (I dont know why so many seek this...) :-?

But in general when good, the more riders out the more fun no doubt at all for me, it is about sharing the stoke :thumb:

Hi Peter where are you alone in perfect conditions ?!?!?!? I come and ride with you !!
