all of us here knows that kiting is such a dangerous sport. being pushed hard by the water and the winds, my bro had twice broken his ankle, had shoulder separation, & many more injuries. many times he attempted to retire from kitesurfing...but whew! the strong winds and big waves just keep on pulling him back

id like to ask, how many injuries have u gotten since u started playing the sport?

shall i enumerate mine? knee & ankle sprains from different tricks; cracked shoulder (this surgery is the worst); stitches in upper lip from kiteloop accident; elbow tendonitis; joint dislocation; knee stitches due to my kiteloop hitting the board. they just happen to me over and over and yet i cant seem to stop loving the sport hehe

then i call myself KING Injury! i've acquired stitches and staples. i also once got my leg and poor ankle broken and my knee torn. then i slammed into a log which caused me to have fractured ribs & punctured lungs for almost a week. what else? now i even had my ring finger twisted and it's swollen. not to mention all the cuts and bruises from my near death experiences from those kite drags.. i think i am such an accident prone kite surfer!

you'll never learn the tricks if you don't get hurt.
