New Forum - Wind Sports

**snowgoose** · 02-25-2008, 06:23 PM

I’m now thinking about starting another forum. This one will only be something for me to occupy my mind with.

The forum niche I am planning is, wind sports.

We will have sections on the forum for various wind sports such as,

Ice boating - using a masted sail attached to a vessel with skates
Kite boating - sailing a boat in displacement or planing mode using a kite
Kite boarding - using a power kite with a wheeled board while standing
Kite buggy - using a wheeled buggy with seats attached to a power kite
Kite flying - flight of a small airfoil by a standing ground operator using 1-4 flying lines
Kite jumping - brief acrobatic flight using a large kite
Kite skating - as for kite jumping but while using specialized skates

I think there is plenty of potential for a forum like this.

Just wondering what everyone else’s thoughts / views on this idea are.

Thanks

Jake

Do you do any of the above sports?

**snowgoose** · 02-25-2008, 11:03 PM

lol yeah i used to do kite buggying and still sometimes do kite skating.

Of coarse theres alot more wind sports, than those i stated. I was merely giving an idea of what the forum would contain.

Does anyone else have any comments / thoughts on this idea?
