I have been dying to learn to kite board! I mastered the trainer kite in 2004. I was about to move to a bigger kite when I shattered my collarbone mountain biking. Then the next year I did Katrina relief for months and was not able to get back to it. Now I want it again but I need to get back on the trainer kite and refamiliarize myself with it. I cannot afford one and I don't suspect it would take me long anyway since I've done it before. So I want to save my money for getting the rest of the equipement. Does anyone know how I can get my hands on one without expensive lessons, which I'd rather save up for when I hit the water? I'm relatively new in town and was also hoping I could meet some others who are interested in the sport. Any info is appreciated! Thanks! -Austin
