the first scene showed that there was a kite boarder goin along the beach and there was a mother and child, the kid ran out to the kite boarder and the mother chased him, the kite boarder couldnt stop and jumped to miss the boy but he hit the mother in the head with the board. later on she died

that's an accident though, I doubt there will be a backlash against kite boarders from that somehow.

Ouch. Yeah i cant see why there would be a backlash, tragic things like that happen all the time on these sorts of programmes

its ok if people do it in sectioned off parts of the beach rather than that for the general public.

Well thats almost like saying when ever there is a road crash with a teenager driving it gives a bad message against teenagers driving.

Except this situation was fictional... and probably adapted for the sake of 'drama' or whatever. At a logical guess, I'd say there are safeguards and precautions against this kind of thing happening, like as Gaspode said, in sectioned off areas etc.

Kinda annoys me when people can't tell the difference between real life and TV fiction, just like when a certain newspaper set up the "Save Dreary Whatserface off Corrie" and so many mindless sheep followed a campaign for a bloody fictional character. This is just sad and these people need to get away from the goggle box once in a while and see what the real world the rest of us inhabit is like.
