I agree that the instructor should be responsible for informing the student about the rigors, but the rest is up to them.

I would think that something closer to lifeguard training would be appropriate for instructors. CPR and basic first aid is great, but not much use if you can't get the person out the water.

It seems to me that rescue of a kiter would almost warrant its own speciality.
