'hawk gets lodging being propelled by wind' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'hawk gets lodging being' is the wordplay.
'hawk' becomes 'kite' (kite is a kind of hawk).
'gets' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'lodging being' becomes 'boarding' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'kite'+'boarding'='KITEBOARDING'
