lit                        - kiter is powered up and moving along quickly
amped                        - feeling of joy from being lit
sick                        - the current conditions are extremely nice and we are very happy, or a particularly good trick
arcing out                - the current conditions are beyond extremely nice and we are beyond happy to exstatic
cranking                - the waves are very good and consistent and the wind is great to ride them
slop                        - the waves are severely affected by onshore winds to the point that they are not really ridable
knife edge                - the waves have a very good geometrically correct shape
filth                        - same as arcing out
lip                        - the tip of the breaking wave
groundswell                - the raw swell size of the wave before it starts to form on the beach
air time                - about as far as many kitesurfers get in maths, time in seconds spent in the air over a kite session
hang time                - the time spent at a similiar height in a jump
capping                - the water is covered in wipe caps, normally acknowledged before a session as a promising sign
topped out                - where the wind exceeds the capacity of the kite
pus                        - there is not enough wind
full air                - the wind is very consistent and is not gusty
gusty                        - the wind is up and down in speed and making the session less than perfect

How to make a kitesurfer your best friend:
  1. Declaire that all social functions you hold are at night
  2. Tell them you own a massive yatch in the Whitsundays Islds
  3. Go to the beach with them with a camera and assist with launching and landing

for best results you will likely need to be wearing a skirt or bikini
How to confuse a kitesurfer:
  1. Whilst they are about to go on the water on a particularly capped out day, get a very attractive young person of the opposite sex to ask them back to their private beach house for some heavy petting. (whilst this will make no difference to the definite outcome that they will still kitesurf, it will temporarilly throw them off guard).

Is kitesurfing better than sex, lets compare:
SEX V KITESURFING

SEX                                                        KITESURFING


sex lasts about 5 minutes                                kiting can last up to 8 hours you only
after that you need 8 hours sleep                      need a 20 minute lunch break

doing it with more than one                            you can group kite        
partner is considered weird

The rubber you wear is ballon                          you cover yourself in black rubber, look like batman
size and costs a few bucks                                and it cost $300 - $600
and it looks silly                             

You know when to stop                                   you don't know when to stop

You can't do it at a beach                                you mostly have to do it at a beach
without serious discomfort

You get into trouble for making                        you routinely make an exibition of yourself
