Kitesurfing, also known as kiteboarding, is a sport whereby a person stands on a board, similar to a surfing but with straps for the feet, while holding onto a kite, and is blown along the surface of the ocean so that the person surfs or rides on the waves. One of the biggest reasons why people are drawn to this sport is that if conditions are appropriate, the force of the wind is able to lift a kitesurfer off the water so that he flies through the air. Kitesurfing can provide endless hours of fun, as well as give your body a great workout, but unless care is taken, it can be dangerous to other kitesurfers and people on the beach or in the water. Kitesurfing is the fastest way of sailing on the water, with the fastest recorded speed being 93,66 km/ph. Travelling at such high speeds can be potentially hazardous as you will not be able to stop immediately or turn easily. Strong, sudden gusts of wind can also cause a kitesurfer to lose control, endangering himself and others. It is, therefore, important to be aware of those around you while kitesurfing.
