IT'S FUN, IT'S FREE. JOIN US ON THE GERALDTON AIRLINES INAUGURAL EVENT!

http://www.geraldtonairlines.com/events

We will be introducing "Geraldton Airlines" on Australia Day 2015.

We'll be at the Geraldton foreshore next to Kite West's demo tent.

Every rider is welcome. We'll have a bus pick up and return to the foreshore after the downwinder. Kiting together along the coast, what a great occasion to meet up!To join, you just need to be fairly experienced, and that's it: It's a pretty easy downwinder -- nothing too challenging -- just a bit of reef to watch out for.

It's free, the track and timing will be announced soon but spots are limited so make sure you join the party and sign up today.

Although it's supposed to be my day off I'm working (gotta love creative rostering), otherwise I'd be in. I can't even chuck a sickie as the departure point is right across from my bosses office

ill pass this one and go before the crowds, soon the run to corro will be as bad as the metro slog
its an interesting run on a 3m solid swell

Really looking forward to this, mainly just seeing a bunch of Geraldton kiters in same place, same time, with a positive vibe. Not that that isn't the situation at Corro most weekends!...just nice to do it right in town. See you there

Austin, I did the Sunset (or Drummonds) to Coros DW seven times between 20 Dec and 4 Jan and never saw another kiter except at SpotX and S. Coros. Will be quite a while before you see any crowds on that run mate.

needs a thumping swell for all the spots to work, think I prefer the seppo - outer outer outer reef runs to drummond when its firing

Still time to sign up for Monday's downwinder.

Had an awesome time today doing Drummonds to Coros.

Tomorrow's run will be Greenough Rivermouth to Pt Moore.

Looks like plenty of wind on the cards.
