Not directly wind/kitesurf related, but I recommend perusing Mark Wyatt's vimeo page for some great interviews of local people, and some great videography. http://vimeo.com/mwyatt

Some Examples:
Wefi Hollow Cedar Surfboards, Lantzville
White's Thermal Fusion Drysuit

Great slo-mo in this one. I like the one-legged stalled forward at the end. Good video for learning port double forwards and push loops.

Scribblevision has made a few great kiting vids that really capture the feeling that many of experience when riding and watching others. I think that the recent windsurfing from Cam(?) captures it as well.

This is my favorite all time kiting video:
