While these are excellent reference materials, in no way should this information be considered a replacement for proper kiteboarding training or experience.  This sport utilizes kites that can be extremely powerful.  Safety equipment (such as helmets, flotation jackets, and quick releases to name just a few) should be used whenever appropriate to the application.  A responsible attitude and training* or experience with a smaller trainer kite are essential for a safe entry into this sport.  Always read owners manuals!  The participant as well as onlookers will have a much safer and more enjoyable experience.
*Scuba Center highly recommends training with a qualified kiteboarding instructor.
