Hello Mark,

Welcome to Florida! There are some instructors to the north and south of you, including:

http://www.swfloridakiteboarding.com
http://www.tampabaykiteboarding.com

This section of the site has some good information for new kiters to read and think over.

In the USA, "kitesurfing" and "kiteboarding" (no gap typically), are often used interchangeably. "Kiteboarding" has support from most in the industry but there have been some quirks along the way with that.
