Sean, a kitesurfing buddy who frequents South Melbourne beach and environs, rescued a drowning woman using his kitesurfing gear. The woman, who had apparently fallen oft a jet ski, was floating face down when Sean kitesurfed out to her.
He was able to drag her in to shore using the kite controlled by one arm, and his other arm around the woman. Well done Sean.
More details and a video interview are available in this article:

This is an online blog journal of all my kitesurfing activities. I blog and log every kitesurfing session and provide information on skills progression, gear, weather and locations. I am based in Melbourne, Australia where we are blessed with good winds and some wonderful kitesurfing. I also take kitecam photos and video. I also record many sessions with a GPS.
