Default Kiteboarding Paradise

I'm looking for some opinions and possibly evidence to back them up...

Is there a place that is windy enough all year long to kiteboard. A place where you don't have to wear a wetsuit 9 months out of the year to kite, where the people speak english, and a person can make enough money to live?

What say you?

Give me some links if you can to back up your claim, at least for the wind!

Danny

Is there a specific Kite operation you'd recommend in Aruba?

Sounds like Hawaii to me....now make enough money to live......that all depends on what you need to make you happy.

My wife is a nurse and I have a degree in education.....2 very easy jobs to find....well not lately in teachin.......f'n economy......we considered the move, but we just didn't want to be that far from our families.

Guess I will have to wait until I reach heaven.

Obviously not the point of your thread... but...

I gotta say, Danny, I'm pretty freakin' stoked to live on the Pinellas coastline! And especially to be kitin' here! This was a crappy place for windsurfin' (not enough ridable days a year...) but I feel like I already found my kiting paradise! At least it feels like paradise on the barrier islands... but not on the freakin' roads in Pinellas! LOL!
