Kayakers probably focus more on survival :-)

I've been wondering if a _big_ kite like the windsurfers use might
be appropriate for someone who is crazy and owns one of those surf
kayaks that is close to a WW in size/handling. So what if you lift
off! I've seen a video of guys that jumped out of a plane in WW
kayaks with wing-type parachutes.
