28 Feb & 1st March we are hosting the annual KITESPORTS Challenge at South Brighton beach, south of the surf club.
Bring along your buggys & landboards for some fun & racing on the beach... then when the wind picks up we can get out in the waves!

Saturday night we're having a party to farewell Sam who's been working at Kitesports the past two seasons!

The KITESPORTS Challenge is all about 'fun times' & everyone getting out & having a go kiting! We'll have plenty of giveaways too...along the lines of best dressed, fastest buggy, trickiest landboarder, wave master, etc....

Register & grab your T-shirt 10am Saturday @ grassed area-south of Surf Club, cost $30, hoodie $50...kiting from 11am as low tide 2pm

Cheers, Tim 8)

Hi guys,
Thanks to everyone that came along to the 09 KITESPORTS Challenge, was a fantastic weekend of kiting...
Saturday morning the easterly wind built from 15knots, up to 25 knots by mid afternoon. This made for insane buggy times for the 8km run...
Landboarding... a bit too windy for my liking, but Nathan, Joe & a few others certainly put on a show.
The wave riding was epic Saturday, the waves just getting better as the day went on...
Saturday nights party went off! See ya Sammy
Sunday morning was hard for quite a few....but hangovers aside, the wind kicked in side/side off from the left, the swell was nice & big...8m & 10m kites set us up for a good long session, & yes, the walls of whitewater were as big as a house...hats off to those who went out strapless!

RESULTS:
Fastest buggy time of 8.58, & the winner of the Peter Lynn 6.8m Viper- Richard Pettett
Best Dressed- 1st Joe (wedding dress), 2nd Sam (suit on the water)
Best Freestyle landboarder- Nathan
Wave Master- 1st Cookie, 2nd Julian
Wave Master Female- 1st Sandy, 2nd Ariana
