Is kiteboarding warmer or colder than surfing?

Sorry to contradict you phillip, but our belly button is the centre of our universe and not the sun.

Big Ben sounds like you need to chill, if the forum is bollocks why post on it? Having surfed and windsurfed for 22 years there have been times when due to wind chill I have felt colder out of the water than in but then what do I know.

Hey Big Ben. I'll add my 30 years of cold water surfing and diving, 20 years of windsurfing and 6 years of kiting. I definitely get colder faster kitesurfing. The wind chill around your head and shoulders, and the constant flushing of the wetsuit gets you colder, quicker.

I have had to come in from kiting because I was cold. I have never stopped suring because I was cold.
