Naming convention


I find myself using all of these terms and can't decide on just one. Is there an official name for the sport that is supported by some organization?

Any thoughts?

Kite Landboarding
Kite Groundboarding
Kite All-Terrain Boarding(ATB)
Other

Trying to do a poll, not sure how it will work.



Kites: BusterI(1.4m), Profoil(1.5m), Flow(2.0m), flow(3.0m) RM+(4.0m), BladeII (4.9m), Razor(5.5m), Frenzy \'07(10m), Yakuza(14m)
Wheels: GI Patrol 106, Libre Fullrace w/BFLs
