So what is going on around here and where does it happen? This section is for discussion on local events, festivals, and holidays as well as activities and things to do.
Just back from an early stroll on the beach and in front of Condochain where a lot of the kite schools are was a poster advertising the above. No details of exact location but shouldn't be hard to find.
No mention of any sponsor unlike the world championships which were sponsored by Intercon and held in front of their hotel but Friday may reveal some staging being erected or other prep work some where on the beach.

Think last year it was centered outside the Intercontinental hotel as many kite boarders stayed there. I stand corrected though.

Better get down the beach and reserve our deckchairs mate or in true Condo style, cover a couple in towels

Oh sh1t, I forgot. The missus bought me a board as an advanced B'day present so I'll be competing. I'll be the one with a walking stick riveted to my board

Was having my lunch on my balcony watching them kick off at around 1345 and all looked fine until the wind dropped

Yes, unusual today as it was windy early but dropped off before 3 pm when normally the wind picks up at that time and the kiters come out to play late in the afternoon.
Anyway I counted around 50 kites at its peak so I guess a successful day.
