Thanks for OceanRodeo Australia for the suport and belive on my Dreams amazing photos from @bloodwilliam
Thanks Merimbula and all the Locals for the hospitality stoked again
Wave Titles did they have one ???
I didn't see any competition just 100 kiters going out at the same time getting tangled , no organization, no scores ,no judging sistem ,no waves
Is that a competition ???
Don't become so ruthless bro. Bad vibes!
Comments like that don't win you any friends.
I dont think your sponsors would approve.
99.99% of rider agreements have clauses about keeping a positive online presence.
Bad mouthing people actually getting stuck into helping the sport grow is a pretty low act.
Just the true
Sorry mate I'm not a super star like you so I don't have to worry about million dollars contract
I just work
Not taking away from the kiters who competed and won titles in Merimbula, they all ripped in those conditions. Merimbula is a great good vibe event, just think the National Wave comp should not be a jam style, it should have heats, proper judging system and competition structure. A spectator wouldn't have known who won the comp, who was competing. Just my opinion, and that's why I didn't compete. Anyway I liked the photos and thought I would share, not to start argument
I agree also. Mambo isnt the place for nationals fullstop. Its not a world class kiting spot. Its a sick event dont get me wrong. Anyway im sure there was more behind the scene that governed the decision to hold it there.
was there one balding kiter at merimbula, i thought there were alot of people who went to that event ?
For everyone winging about not having a proper Comp. Get off your lazy arse and organise one yourself. Call KA, get thier backing, insurances, funding. Call your local.council and fill out the million paper forms to be knocked back 20 times before you get it through. then after all that have the bloody comp and deal with everyone who didnt win calling you a C_/T because they think they should win. After all that, back it up year after year, hell maybe for 37 freakin years. Then, only then do you get to have a dig at peoples decisions to have a nation title were theybwant to have a national title.
That restaurant in the background - is a great place. I wonder if that Asian lady still runs it? Great food, greet cook and service.
your mums a great cook loftywinds
as for this bull**** about "organising a comp" with "insurance" ****ing bull****
all the best comps for all the best sports rely on uploaded track logs.
no insurance
no meets
no council approvals
no forms
no bull****.
everyone just needs to upload there best trick for the month.
DONE.
at end of season (4 months) the top 5 asshats get a week at whatever destination they choose etc etc who ever wins out of them gets everyone's entry money (5$ a pop)
this way people who can actually kitesurf who are to busy being photographed drinking ice teas in hammocks in hawaii etc can actually enter and compete.
if the tuff **** who had to make a facebook page to start this **** feels like there entitled to some money get the logo printed on some stubby coolers charge everyone $10 entry and they get a free cooler.
keep it simple stoopids
