we dont get many people doing this kind of thing around here so i stopped and shot some pictures of him, it was cool it was in a flooded farm (drought my ass) near a waterfowl perserve, i dont take pictures of people very often but these turned out well i think, i guess he is parasailing, i am not really sure, c&c please

This is known as "Kite boarding", basicly a wake board that would normaly be pulled behind a boat but instead of the boat the rider uses a kite. In very good conditions these guys can catch some serious air.
Good photos by the way,

Where the water is has no bearing on him catching air, if it is windy enough the kite will pull him right out of the water. These guys also use the kites with snow boards on open ice, skateboards or the new big tire "off road" skate boards. It is pretty cool what they can do.
