Kite Boarding "Making New Waves" in Asia

From Channel News Asia - an article that makes it look like Kite Surfing is going to become mainstream in Asia.

... kiteboarders - as the participants are called - are attached to giant airborne kites, measuring some 20 square metres, via lines hooked to a harness - using a board, the guys will surf the waves, and even get airborne.

A Singaporean kiter - Jason Chang said: "We have a lot of Singaporean kiters. I think, we have more than 50 kiters."

Down in Cadizfornia where I live there are lots of wind and kite surfers - its nice to watch them - and its nice to see kiteboarding catching on in Asia also.
