Can I just shout out a massive thanks to all those who rescue others boards.
I have needed some one elses help getting my board back 3 times since I started (including today) and each time I would have lost it. So, if your a board saver, cheers! People like you keep the kiting community strong and the sport more enjoyable! 
If no beers provided,
next time your board is picked up it will be taken even further up wind.
LOL
round here if you require rescue it's your carton; if you put your kite up a tree you make off as quickly as you can because a. it's your carton and b. your about to cop heaps! lol
otherwise we take turns bringing an esky of cold beers for the 6-8 of us to enjoy after the session, i reckon it must be one of the most social apres kite scenes going. love my local :)
3 times.....2 times too much...
Please check your equipment or get another lesson. If you cant self rescue or body drag back to your board in your conditions/local you arent ready.....
Its not up to locals to pick up the failures who fail to become self competent.
