Certified instructors who do not use good judgement at the very least should risk losing their certification. If they give lessons in a location that may endanger anyone else (other kiters, beachgoers, windsurfers), they could be charged with culpable negligence. It is a second degree misdemeanor (no injury) and first degree if they injure someone. Then there is the personal injury lawsuit that will no doubt follow. I'm sure a judge will not take kindly to an instructor who was charged with culpable negligence.
