This is all because of inflatable kites. If everyone was flying foil kites instead there would be no safety issue with launching/landing. No argue about water/shore launch. With foil kites, you just hot launch them safely (there is no power in the kite at first).

Say yes to fast, effecient and extremely safe foil kites, say no to inflatable kites and their dangerous launch procedure. Safety First!!! :lol:

Haven't been hanging around nitnat tnat much until again this year. Noticed the kite safety situation had deteriorated--becoming one of the most reckless (after Venezuela) places on the planet. So-called 'teadchers' screaming at their 'students' as kites come crashing down at the main windsurf launch etc. Indian bystanders with their kids, not knowing a kite in a power dive can be dangerous, in peril. It's an old sport now--nobody's gonna appreciate the brainless show-offing. Time to get it together and clean up your act before we're engulfed in pure chaos.

We should all take it upon ourselves to politelly enforce them...

I didn't see anything about tossing pebbles at peoples chests to wake them up? (and by toss I mean throw, by pebbles I mean rocks, and by chest I mean forehead)

Nice work A.C. & Markus. I assume the campers who leave their trash are the same ones who avoid paying a camp MAINTENANCE fee :idea: :idea: :roll: :roll:

Dwayne, can you ask Hermann what weekend he will need help to put down the Sauna?

Any new kiters want to help, good way to contribute to community work :)

Kus. Nobody ask U to clean up. What do those lazy asses who take fees do for us. Let them do the clean up and please get a job or something.

'We should all take it upon ourselves to politelly enforce them... '

Let's not get too carried away over a trifle folks. Hate that word 'enforce' usually backfires and creates bad vibes. Better to just, as I do, pick up if something's bothering you. I could point out there's a lot of much greater nuisances at the lake . . . We don't want a return to the bad old days when the place was run like a stalag.
