I hate to point this out, but...many of these photos have made photography seem cool, and nature...but there's nothing here making kitesurfing look particularly great.
In fact, by needing a chick (?) or a great nature shot to spice things up, it's looking more and more like the old cigarette ads, trying to associate a (possibly not so cool) product with good things so that some of the positive feelings people have about those things will rub of onto their perception of the product.
Is there such a thing as a cool kitesurfing photo? 
Hey! How about Robbie Naish or Jason Polakow rippping up Jaws or Hookipa? Getting ridiculous air? Pulling off moves that people with decades of experience are still in awe of? Yeah, that'll work! Oh, wait, that's not kitesurfing...
oops...
Pole dancing is obviously so exciting that you need to come hijack our forum for some entertainment- why don't ya sod off wet willy!
Whale... nature... kitesurfing.... Isnt that what its all about? Being out there with nature. I think a photo that combines nature and kitesurfing together explains the essence and beauty of kitesurfing. I myself feel closer to nature when I kitesurf then doing any other activity. How can cigarettes even be compared to this???
All this biatching and whinning why not just post some pics?
No glamour shots here, just a more-or-less random grab from the seabreeze archives. An amateur photo, taken in Australia, not Maui! Height achieved through speed and control, not from a kite lifting the guy up! Years of experience required: More than you've had hot dinners, sonny! Wind: Pretty decent!
(Yes it's grainy and the angle isn't so flattering and the camera obviously cost way less than $3000 and the background scenery isn't so pretty...better run to mommy)
heck i'm getting 1 
Please, can we ignore Wet Willy's flat earth, out dated, techno phobe ramblings and get back to looking at hot chicks with kites.
mmmm... hot chicks with kites.
Does not quite compete with Mike Bolton in a Bikini Railey but a nice slide all the same.
Hey Mike, where did you take that Whale photo? I had a session at Sunshine once with some whales.
heck i'm getting 1
Hey Keahi,nice pic of the flat water spot.
Where is it?what mountain is that in the background?
Have seen it before and is driving me nuts trying to remember where it is
I think it's Cooroy Mountain
You can't see Tinbeerwah in that picture it's off to the right.
Without quoting and repeating all the pics....I like the one at Teahuapoo and the one with the whale. Whale!
I don't get all the comments about Marine's railey - she looks like Marine to me. Maybe they were being funny saying she looked like a man or something? Far too sophisticated humour for me.
I'll be disappointed if I don't get to kite over a whale this afternoon.
damn you got me....
