I posted that without reading any other posts - like winddoc's - and was interested to see how zen and spiritual was a theme

Kiting / windsurfing is a great way to purge yourself from day to day events that have a way of building & clouding up your consciousness ... It's like a psychological sneeze ... & like any addiction it must be fed, with hours of wind watching & forum discussion ... New friends are introduced as you move through your personal kiting / windsurfing evolution ... You can enhance your personal journey by helping others with equipment, support & the after session debrief ... 8)

mattdog - i agree fully. however, i caution you on complimenting winddoc too much - it might go to his head. afterall, he's already been published twice in the Penthouse Forum... :shock:
