Winters frosty tentacles have well and truly wrapped themselves around Adelaide, but it's not all bad news as winter brings strong frontal winds and big swell for those who want to brave the stormy conditions. So with strong winds and big swell it can only mean one thing- its time once again for the South Australian Kite Surfing Associations State Wave Titles.

This is aimed at being a fun event for every level of rider (beginners to the more advanced). Getting in and having a go is what SAKSA encourages - don't be a spectator, sign up and compete. Beach marshalls will be there to look after you and the more experienced crew are always happy to share some pointers. For the newbies this is a great chance to have a go at some decent waves then kick back and watch some of the fancy footwork of those who have been doing it for years.

To ensure good conditions the event is staggered over 4 weekends in June and July (25th and 26th June, 2nd and 3rd, 9th and 10th and 16th and 17th of July) – the first weekend with a good forecast and it's on !

The Event will be held on the Mid Coast with the exact location being chosen 2 days prior to the event, based on wind direction and swell. So if you're intending to compete make sure you keep a close eye on the SAKSA forum for further details.

The competition will be judged based on the PKRA style of judging and will consist of Open Mens and Womens, Masters, Amateur and Junior divisions.

The Mid Coast gives a number of great vantage point for spectators, so bring down your family and friends for whats sure to be a fun day with some great riding to be had.

So whether you're strapped or unstrapped, hook in or unhooked, throwing aerials or simply out there riding the wave and having fun, make sure u get along and compete to try and snag one of those coveted SAKSA trophies on offer- not to mention you will go in the running for some lucky draw prizes, there's something for everyone.

See you all there
