look at this map...GPS data from different kind of sportsmen...including kitesurfers!

Use the search to find your local spot ;-)

I wonder what devices/apps submit the data?

I can find my track in a little used spot where i live :0 ,I use a old Garmin 310xt w/Strava . It would be great to be able to layer it ,remove the BAFing and see the best wave locations use. The M2M ,Maliko and So.Maui paddling routes clearly show up also ,cool to see paddling routes with current and wind variations .
