"The idea behind kiteboarding itself is very simple. A kitesurfer stands on a board with foot straps and uses the
power of a large controllable kite to propel him and the board across the water. This simplicity also makes such
boarding challenging. Your body is the only connection between the kite and the board and you have to control
them both at the same time: piloting the kite in the sky and steering the board on the water."

It would do a complete body workout. Theres barely any muscles that arent used. Legs, arms, chest, shoulders all come in to play at one point or another.
