We decided to stay a bit more warm and hit up Landboarding / Landkiting in Lawrence, Kasnas. Great times! Instead of water flying in your face, it was dirt, lol. The wind was a bit gusty but we were able to take some good tacks back and forth in the field. It felt great to leave a session nice and dry for once! Although we did end up going kiteboarding the next day…

Many people think that kiteboarding is only a warm water sport but that is not the case.  When actually, the colder it gets, the BETTER the wind!

Don’t let the cool weather fool you Come take a lesson to:
1. Get ready for snowkiting for winter
2. Start landboarding now
3. Be extreme and kiteboard with us in the water!

Kiteboarding is literally an all season sport – you never have to stop kiteboarding! No matter what the temperature, you can kiteboard – well until the water freezes.   

By the way, you might want to consider a drysuit like the one below for ultimate warmth.  Most of your body, besides your face, don’t get wet.  You come out of your cold water session nice and toasty!

The wind was blowing at Smithville Lake, so we decided to play   The sky was a bit cloudy when we arrived but it turned out to be a beautiful session in the end. There was a good showing and it looked like everyone had a fun time!

It’s the fall season, do you know what that means? The wind is HERE!

The weather was a bit cold but the students were eager to learn.  We started with Cadete Training – Stage 1. Wind Theory and Kite Control, since they were new to the sport of kiting.  It was an informative lesson with fun times on the trainer kite which taught them all about the “Wind Window.”

Here are some pictures of our last lesson with a few of the KFA students. We also decided to take the boat for a run.
