Kite surfing as a water sport began in the 1980s, but didn’t get popular until the end of last century. It is also known as kite boarding, and in some European countries as fly surfing. Kite surfing works through wind power (動力) by using a large kite to pull a rider on the water at high speed.
At first, kite surfing was a difficult and dangerous sport. Now it is becoming easier and safer because of the safer kite design. For an able and strong person, kite surfing can be a very fun, extremely exciting sport, just like skating on the water with a feeling of flying. It has become more and more popular.
Compared with other water sports, kite surfing is easier to learn. A beginner can understand how to operate the kite with 5--10 hours of training. And anybody aged from 13 to 65 can learn. It is not expensive to get the equipment for kite surfing, which costs $1,000 to 82,500. Training lessons range from $200 to $500 for two or three hours. With the development of its equipment progress, kite surfing is becoming even safer. After some training, you can enjoy its excitement and challenging feeling.
