I have been wanting to capture kiteboarding for quite a while but never seem to get the chance. I went up to the teacher and introduced myself and asked if he would mind if I took some photos. He was more than happy that I did.. I also emailed him the pics too.

45 degrees seems to be a common choice for tilting the image. For this one, I think that's a bit too much. I feel the image would be much more dynamic if the bar were coming into the image from the top left corner. It would feel less contrived and more deliberate.
Tack sharp and great sharpness. Love the water drops. Certainly one of the top 10. It's just a shame his face wasn't looking towards the camera. Still great though.
