1) the KiteHouse Miami
2) Skybanditz (esp. Ken but also Francisco)
3) Cabrihna Pro Rider Damien Leroy (lives around Naples)
While I live in Naples, I would be happy to drive across if it meant the experience/instruction would be better. I don't have any vacation time coming up, so it would have to be just over the weekends (i.e. no hops to the Bahamas, unfortunately).
I really appreciate any feedback on these choices, or any other suggestions. Right now I am kinda leaning towards the KiteHouse, but I wanted to see what you guys thought first.
Thanks again!

Hello Chuck,
There is another choice a bit closer to home as well,
http://www.swfloridakiteboarding.com/ in the Naples area.
Selecting a kiteboarding instructor is an important process. Given that some are out of your area, it can be even more so. I recommend that you read over the following guide to selecting instruction and interview the candidate instructors that you favor. Cost should not be the top consideration in this selection process.
