Filmmaker Chase Burns, in association with In The Loop Kiteboarding, is pleased to release
“Land of Lahara” across the country.
With an immaculate blend of stunning environments, consistently perfect kiting conditions, and some of the most talented riders that Australia has to offer, it#700;s a dynamic viewing experience. Through his camera lens Burns is able to capture the vibrancy, diversity and excitement of local village life and the thrills that travelling to such untouched lands brings.

Premiers:
05.02 Cairns Green Ant Cantina, 7pm
06.02 Townsville Dance North, 7pm (all ages)
07.02 Mackay Arsa Shop, 6pm (all ages)
10.02 Lizard Island Marlin Bar, 8pm
10.02 MELBOURNE Gershwin Room, Hotel Esplanade "espy", St kilda, 8pm ( all ages but must bring adult)
19.02 Perth ( TBA)
27.02 Port Moresby (TBA)

Is this a kiteboarding flick? Just a little confused...

So - you can go all the way to Papua New Guinea to film but can't manage an Adelaide or Hobart premiere......thumbs down- I wont be buying.

I see you have 19.02 (TBA) listed for Perth, FYI most of the Perth kitesurfing community will be up the coast attending Kitestock on that weekend.

The video advises at the end 19 - 21 at Kitestock

If you want to organize a premier in Adelaide, do it you got all support mate!

Ah I see, makes sense, I'm at work and cant view youtube here.

the Andy Yates film teaser will most likely only be shown at the Melbourne premier of "Land of Lahara"! Try to make it on the night of the 10.02 if you down there for the Nationals!

We will chuck "NQ Odysee" teaser on Vimeo/YouTube/ Seabreeze a few days after..

Peace*

Sorry for the aggressive nature of the original post- both spots Adelaide and Hobart have strong kiting communities that support things like this...shame to see none here, but hopefully you can contact the guy i sent the contact details for in a pm and we can have an adelaide premiere.....

yea it sure is mate. what are you confused about?

Dont get me wrong the edit is really slick and captures some atmosphere.

BUT how do you expect me to get amped on the teaser if you show me just one average kiteloop in 1:50 seconds?

Props on using Apparat for the audio though ;)

Sci, you r welcome to join and contribute to one of the next Films with some bigger kiteloops or whatever amps u up.
Peace

Looking forward to the Premier. Great location guys. We will have all post nationals parties at the Espy as well.
Well done for getting this up as part of nationals.

this is the Gershwin Room at Espy where the film will be shown

Mind you it was 30+ knots on these days as well.

Is that a gay bar?

You may get some poleys though.

Gershwin Room is a great venue!
I'm hoping to make it along to the Melbourne one with a few kiting and non-kiting friends.
