track & field (hurdles), more track, snowboarding, now it's bouldering when there's no wind and kiting when there is... climb & kite.... that's life.

pretty much every water, land, and snow sport, now just jet-ski surfing hurricane swell when the wind isn't blowing, snow skiing. Basketball, soccer and wrestling to stay in shape.

Skydiving... More expensive than kitesurfing :cry:

But jumps are definitely higher! :bye:

Freestyle skiing, cycling, mountain biking, snowboarding, high-powered rocketry.

Gave up cyclying for mountain biking - still mountain bike on wind-free days.

Gave up high-powered rockets because the ATF limited the transport of rocket motors after 9-11 - bummer!

Replaced skiing and snowboarding with kite powered versions - much more fun and no lift lines

most enjoyable sport - a nice long walk with my wife
