So I'll definitely be there. Guaranteed. If I can't get leave from work, then I'll have to quit my pathetic part time job.

It's gonna be an awesome weekend. I've never experienced a kite sports challenge without wind.

Anyone for a game of astroball afterwards? I can bring the toilet rolls.

Great weekend of NE & E winds! Saturday was a light 10 knots all day at South Brighton great for buggys & mountainboards, then we hit the Estuary for a late afternoon kiteboarding session up to 15 knots.
Sunday, windy from early am at the beach, awesome buggy time trials, freestyle buggy/mountainboard. Wave riding all day, the swell picking up nicely in the afternoon. Finished the day with a powered session on the Estuary, & BBQ prizegiving. Special thanks to DAKINE & Peter Lynn KItes.
Results:
Buggy 7km Time Trials- Craig Hansen 9.38, William 9.39, Craig Knights 9.40
Fastest Mountainboarder plus best freestyle on a mountainboard went to Nathan
Buggy Freestyle- Mason
Wave Master- Nico
Most Improved- Sandy

Thanks to everyone, once again a great fun event!
Cheers, Tim 8)
