I usually hate shots taken at an awkward angle, but it works for me in this shot. I like that you caught him entering the frame. I don't mind seeing the land in the corner, as it adds perspective, but if you cropped it out, it might give more of that "flying" feeling. Nice shot.

The only knock I would give the photo is that white rope coming off the left arm? Or is that a jet steam? I'd clone that out.
Also maybe the person kite surfing facing the camera. I know this is a lot to ask when things are all happening so fast but maybe something to shoot for in future photos of this activity.

Other than that I like it~!
