Kiteboarding, also known as kitesurfing, is a water sport that blends elements and characteristics of wakeboarding, surfing, windsurfing, snowboarding, paragliding, and skateboarding.
Kitesurfing is a wind powered surface watersport using a kite and a board to move across the water. 일본야동닷컴
Kites with inflatable tubes are used to produce the pull from the wind. The inflatable parts of the kites help hold the shape and also allow the kite to float and therefore be re-launched from the water.

Kiteboarding Equipment you will need

A Helmet - to protect your head
Water Shoes - We highly recommend having water shoes. A cut in the foot can ruin the whole experience
Wetsuit - Depending on the water temperature you may wish to consider wearing a wet suit. It’s also a great idea for protecting you during skill practice.
A Door Board - Once you’ve mastered controlling the kite, you’ll move onto the water start skills. This is when you’ll experience your first tries with the board. A larger board is generally much easier for beginner riders.
Safety Leash - Sometimes beginners can struggle with a waist gear due to the possibility of it moving upwards.
