hello to all kiters & to the doz or so kiters with duel citizenship with fiji !!

all mail for (lach,craig,ric & holley) needs to be addressed to " we eat,sleep & sheeet wind,north of ric`s dead forest" next to ripped kite creek. fiji.........

i might be heading up to old bar on the long weekend, anyone got any interest??
not sure weather to take trailer or boat, depends on wind closer to the day,

craig; will wear a grass skirt & carry a spear to make us all feel like we are over there,

ric; will hire out his 2 peice kite,

lach; will bring his majical weather stick.( keep it clean people)

holly; will be our pink internet wind checker,& get a pic standing next to craig in skirt...

daz; will burry a dead pig on hot coles(coals) for dinner,get pissed & forget about pig,tell stupid jokes & run around poking craig with spear,& might do a bit of kiting !!!

sounds like a fiji trip to me !!!!

sounds good....but no grass skirt for me and no spear.

Love the pics ric, great shape on wave and i even get a start in one.

May have to take the jet ski if lochs magic stick is broken.

As for sticking your self in hot coles that's a bit extreme Daz

Put me down for a 2 man (1 man & 1 women) tent site Daz

If the wind looks like being OK might even head up on Friday lunch time and get a session in the arvo.

does the tide have much effect, I see they are high in the arvo

Will be going up in the dual cab so will have a spare seat or two in the back

Yep I am booked
Found out what time you are arriving so I will get there a bit earlier to get on the water before U

FYI the sites are 9m x 14m
1st two adults on the site are $30 per night
Every adult after this is $12 per night & kids $8

There is only my car and tent on my site, so there will be enough room for someone else on my site

I will also have room in my car for trip up on friday miday or earlier if the wind is on

If you have a 4wd I just found this:

Vehicles on beaches policy & permit

General Information

Reciprocal beach permit rights have been established between Greater Taree City Council and Great Lakes Council. Holders of current beach permits issued by either council can access beaches in both areas. Permit holders must, however, comply with local restrictions on access and usage. Please Note: There are no reciprocal rights with Great Lakes with Seven Day Permits.

Fiji what has daz started

I allready have a great lakes beach permit anyway so Iam good there

I have allready booked a campsite next to the other guys, not sure they would let u put a van there!
But a camper trailer should not be a problem.

If just you go you can share one of our sites plenty of room

If the whole family go you would probly need to book another site
Daz had 4 unpowered sites held.
I think there is one left up for grabs.

let us know if you want to take a trailer or van..
we have a box trailer or a camper van or the kiteboarding trailer we can take... either one it doesnt matter... the kite trailer goes the best on the beach though.
