Do not mean to attack you, just felt the need to call you out. You have a greater responsibility since you give lessons. You said the city is banning kiteboard lessons, not kiteboarding, so that leads me to believe that there is more of a problem with the lessons, not the locals.
You were giving the demo at the slick, therefore, it is your responsibility to make sure people are safe. I would have refused to launch him. He was launching on your kite. I have turned people down for a launch if they refuse to listen. Lesson or demo, we should not allow someone to make a mistake that could cost us our sport. A sport I have enjoyed in Brevard County for a very long time.
