As announced in the last blog, Aidan, representing the North and Naish kite and boards brands, came over in Agnes Water on the 12 of August to demonstrate the quality of the new 2010 Naish and North boards and Kites … Not the best condition to do a demo day but Luke manage to carve it hard in the waves on the new Naish Torsh 11m unstrapped on his surfboard ! Really interesting new range of kites and board! We got really impressed by the new North Board which includes a board for all level … extremely good quality !
Another note on our new website which is starting to take form and should be online by then end of september … cant wait !
An action packed few weeks here with some rockin’ northerly action keeping the dream alive at a time we are usually couched up and losing form.
With the northerly action we have been spending a lot of time on the 1770 Sandbar in 15-25 knots with a wide variety of students from all over the world and quite a few experienced kiters tagging along as word of our choice location spreads like wildfire.
The 17th and 18th saw us out on the sandbar with Neil having his first lesson and cruising through level 1. Stefanie, Denis and Nadine (all independent kiters) joined us also for what can only be described as a super sweet session carving up the estuary in smooth wind and perfect water conditions.
With the South Easterlies kicking in on the 19th we packed the van and headed out through Deepwater National Park for a Broadwater Mission with Stefanie (she can’t get enough), Michael, Chris, JoJo and Pauline. All the newbies having a blast and the hotshots strutting their stuff with the wind dropping out late in the session unfortunately preventing attempts at boardriding for the new guys….but there is always next time guys….
The 22nd saw us out with Andrew from W.A and Blake both completing Level 1 certification with ease in 15-20 knots on the Sandbar.
Sunday saw us out on the Sandbar again with the addition of Sandrine to the crew. Andrew did a great job riding the board …. way to go mate! Craig also came out for the session and got himself in a bit of strife tangling up in some trees but a successful rescue mission is always good to keep us on our toes.
After a few days of rest and relaxation (more kiting with no students) we had a great session with Cecile in 15-20 knots learning kite control.
The added bonus of where we are has also provided us with some amazing dolphin action with Cedric spotting a new baby dolphin cruising the waters of Round Hill Creek on Saturday.
Also some big news for us is we are moving to a bigger and better location with the advent of becoming an accredited IKO Centre and with the addition of the Stand-Up-Paddle Gear which arrived on the weekend we even have the non-windy days covered for activity.
Thanks to all for the positive feedback on our service, the area and of course the enjoyment of the sport and thank you all for the big grins and enthusiasm that certainly makes our job not seem like a job at all.
On another exciting note we have just received brand new kite gear from Naish and North with some great packages available and remember…discount for those who have lessons with us…….
