By Laurence Arnold
Nicholas Valtz was born in Paris, earned letters as a fencer at Harvard University, loved fast cars and worked his way up to managing director at Goldman Sachs Group Inc. in New York.
At 39, married with two young children, he still found time for fresh adventures.
He was new to kitesurfing, his brother, Zeke Valtz, said yesterday in an e-mail. But he engaged new activities and endeavors with enthusiasm.
On the morning of July 20, Valtz left his home in Bridgehampton, New York, on Long Islands eastern end, to spend time on his latest sport. Kitesurfing, also known as kiteboarding, combines elements of windsurfing and paragliding.
After he didnt return home, family members went searching. They found his body in Napeague Harbor, a popular spot for kiteboarding. Police in East Hampton, New York, said his body was found floating in the water secured to his kite.
