If you like skiing, scating, snowboarding, surfing, then you may like kiteboarding as well. I always lived near the coast, and with mountains a thousand kilometers away, kitesurfing is the way to go. At Zandvoort (a German guidebook says) 'in strong winds the bear gets loose'. I have seen waves up to four meters, three meter waves I would say you will get twenty times a year. These are the days we get our substitute for backcountry snowboarding, though here the pistes are made of moving and unpredictable dykes of water.
You will find some moving images down here:
These pictures are shot at Witsands at the west side of the Cape, South Africa.
