(on the aksa websight). so is that it ? or is there another websight aside from aksa and waksa, that actually has the kiting events on there? Im sure that the must be other things on...

you dont know of anything on from the 20th of nov to the 20th jan? thats 2 months of nothing????? i guess i was thing more of the holiday slot..... but then again everyones holidaying by the looks of it
There was supposed to the Ledge to Lancelin marathon race on Sat 8 Jan 05 but I understand that the windsurfing mafia are excluding kite surfing. They have had a last minute change of heart the last two years so who knows!
Some of the events at http://www.windsurfingwa.org.au/events.php may end up including kiting.
WAKSA are preoccupied with the Nats but maybe Choicey might run another event?
I'm sure they'll be heaps of layback social "events" anyway but if anyone wants to put their hand up to run an event I'm sure it will get heaps of interest.
