I agree with Bryan.

In theroy, I like the idea of kite certs but it comes down to enforcement. Consider the number of laws on the books. It only matters what is enforced.

I think the direct on the beach approach is the best we have.

I do believe it would be helpful to try and get an agreed upon set of guidelines. I know we have several sources for general good practicies. These should be distributed first by local instructors and then periodaclly at our local spots.

Even a short flyer of guidelines that could be distributed at our local spots would be helpful.

I know when Byran and I started, we were active in seeking out guidence from the local riders and online groups but others may not and bascilly trying to stay as far as possbile from other riders. It was also about six months after we got our basic skills down before we moved to the Skyway.

What has/ or is worked(ing) the best in other areas?
