Hope to get some input on this from Neil, Kent and others in the Industry. I would like to hear their thoughts on this as well. We'll likely talk about it in tonight's Podcast.

I am concerned about Florida right now and am not concerned about a bewildering glut of clips at present either.

The most common problem that I have heard about worldwide for years leading to bans is riding in out of bounds swim areas. Not all nearshore areas are out of bounds or contested however. More often than not they are in guarded or restricted areas and are COMMON knowledge with local kiters. If in doubt, focus on that.

I don't want to suffer paralysis by analysis, a common engineer's malady with pursuing new ideas however. If in doubt, throw up a trial and see how it flys. For all concerned though it should be a good one, as unassailable as possible.

Over to the rest, what do you think?
