Rub it in Eagle, I get off of work at 4:30... :D

Rub it in Toby.. My wife just called and said she has to work late and I need to pick up the little one from day care. I can't wait until she is old enough to go ride with me.

Don't they have those "baby backpacks"? Just strap her to your back and that way she'll get the chance to watch your board skills and how you control the kite so when she starts kiting she'll already have fought half the battle!!! :idea: :idea: :idea: :idea:

Rick,

The southeastern tip of Egmont Key is a designated bird sanctuary and you are not allowed on the beach. There is a large, very large area of shoaling just south of Egmont towards Anna Maria Island which is a kiteboarding paradise. There is one sand bar known as Passage Key, it is well marked with regulatory signs designating the area off limits.
You have to watch out for the current here and be aware this area is known for large hammerhead sharks.
