Ahh no, que era un kite
, perdón por la confusión, ya que es un deporte muy parecido al windsurf y me he liado.
Pues eso, un kite sin control pilla con las lineas a un niño de 3 años que paseaba tranquilamente por la playa con sus padres, lo levanta con las lineas por el aire hasta que se suelta y cae a plomo de cabeza. Cortes y sangre y el niño al hospital.
Peace love and Harmony para todos como dice nuestro estimado y desaparecido Sigal Kiter.

Three-year-old hurt after being lifted into the air by out-of-control kite surfer
A worried parent has demanded more protection for the public after his three-year-old son got tangled up when a kitesurfer lost control of her equipment.
Elton and Katie Mogg and their son Dylan were walking on East Wittering beach with their grandparents when a kite came crashing down – just yards from where Dylan was paddling.
As the female kitesurfer desperately tried to regain control, the kite lifted back into the air with Dylan tangled in the wires.
He was hoisted about 10ft into the air. Terrified and screaming, Dylan then came loose from the wires and crashed down head first as his parents and grandparents watched in horror.
Cut and bleeding, but still conscious, Dylan was taken to St Richard's Hospital by his parents.
After an anxious wait they were told by doctors he had had a miraculous escape, suffering only cuts and bruises.
Mr Mogg now wants an explanation from Chichester District Council, which has responsibility for that part of the beach, as to how such an accident was allowed to happen.
"There must be some kind of enforcement in place for a sport that has such potentially tragic and dangerous consequences," he said.
"At the very least there should be an area specifically for kitesurfers. And they should certainly be far enough out to sea that if they lose control of their kite, it does not land anywhere near the beach or to anyone on it."
The council is now investigating the accident and said that during the summer months kitesurfers were encouraged to use a quieter section of beach, between Selsey and the caravan park.
In a statement, the council said: "We are naturally distressed to hear about the injuries sustained to Dylan and we wish him a speedy recovery.
"Kitesurfers have a responsibility to follow the bylaws which state their activities should not cause a danger to other beach users.
"However, we understand there are only limited places where people can access the beach, and with the weight and size of kitesurfing equipment, people tend to practise their sport at points where they do not have to carry their equipment a long way.
"Therefore, we do try to keep a balance between all recreational users so the beach can be safely enjoyed by as many people as possible."
