#29 Stomme politiekers!!!

2011-02-03 13:33

Ik vind het niet kunnen ervaren kiters te verbieden te varen boven 6 bf. Dan pas kun je genieten van grote golven en megajumps.
Windsurfers beginnen maar vanaf 6 bf en zij mogen wel nog zeker? Dit is oneerlijk, dit is discriminatie en trekt op de kloten. Ik ga er in ieder geval niet achter kijken en de boetes kun je steken waar daj wilt, maar ik betaal die zeker niet. Waar zijn we in godsnaam mee bezig als de flikken nu ook al under gaan bemoeien met onze watersport.

En ook kiters verplichten om in een bepaalde zone te blijven kan volgens mij niet. We zijn afhankelijk van de windrichting en door de enorme groei van deze sport zijn er steeds meer en meer kiters op het water en als we allen samen in een zone moeten blijven vergroot dit de kans om met elkaars lijnen in elkaar te varen en tot ongelukken.

Regelgeving... ok, maar verbieden is.... absurd.

In iedere sport gebeuren er wel eens ongelukken ok, maar die zullen er altijd blijven met of zonder jullie stomme regels.

All good and well with the petition and the fight to keep politicians from making decisions on something they don't have an idea about.
But I don't see how hostility and disrespectful behavior could benefit us kiters in this fight for our rights to free movement and being able to practice this sport to our own abilities whenever we want. Of course, in the end, it's up to US kiters to have common sense when and where to go kite and be safe.

#34 Banning kitesurfing in more than 6bft

2011-02-03 15:59

This ban has clearly been introduced by people who do not understand the problem. It would make more sense to ban lessons in more than 6bft and banning non-qualified instructors to give lessons to anyone.
Kiting on a 12m kite in 20knots is similar to kiting on a 7m kite in 35knots.
The ban is largely un-enforceable too so pointless really.

As long as kite-surfers have common sense, they will not go out in winds that are too challenging for their standards. I often ride in 7bft + winds and it is the most exhilarating thing I could ever do. Don't take it away from us.

Most of the accidents happen when people learn by them selves and dont know safety. Strong winds should be personal option for everybody!
