Road Trip to Whyalla for the Whyalla kite boarding Classic
Its time for a road trip again.. After such a sick trip to Barmera, and Robe to far away.. Its time to fill up the car, the esky and maybe your kite gear, and start the 4 hours drive to Whyalla..

The event looks sick, sign up from 2.30 to 3.30pm on the sat 17th Jan, Free ride session from 3.30.. With sliders, kickers and maybe a race.. Then voted, a top 10 Comp for pro winner, but heaps of prizes and division. So doesn’t matter how good or bad you kite, every one has a chance to win something…

After the comp, its next door to the surf club for more beers, Pressos, and dinner while we wait for the Eyre to warm so that we can party on, until dawn.. Its going to be sick….

Accommodation: the Caravan park is close to the event, and walking distance from the Eyre Hotel, that is if you are that keen or your name is Tommy Scott.

It’s a trip for all, so come along and have blast..

More info to come..

Hmmm...let me think about that Walshy-I have seen you in action on a big night out and it is very scary...

Geoff, I think that is the pot calling the kettle black!

I've shared a cabin with you, and that was scary. I think I might give Walshy a chance!!

Either way, I'm there!

well we are hitting up there caravan park. I dont think we could get banned from 2 caravan parks in 3 months.
But we will try

Hope everyone had a good christmas.

Its prob best to stay at the caravan park or the combi. That way cars dont have to be left at the foreshore and my neighbours dont get cranky.

Should be a good weekend regardless. Pray for wind tho !!

hey lads, just a quick msg to let you guys know that i stuffed up on the start time, sign up is from 2 to 3pm... Lookin forward to catchin up with everyone...

hey lads and lasses, this weekend is destined to be massive... Everyone is welcome to come the more the better... Sat night is hopefully gonna be huge, the country lads will show you guys how to party!! Its alright though stewie, ill get some red cruisers for you :) look forward to seein everyone in our home town...

I am slowly getting amped for one out of control weekend.....why must we always do this to ourselves...

i heard a rumer that some of team geoff are not coming to wyhalla becuase they are getting told what to do by there girl freinds. so sad. Grow some bulls.

Hey All! I was down at whyalla for Christmas for a week to see family (I live in Adelaide these days!) But really great bunch of guy down there! Well worth the 4 hour drive down from Adelaide. Perfect location for Kiteboarding ... nearly everyday!!

I dont think i will go in the comp! But i am definetly thinking about going down to have some fun and watch some massive kiteboarding!!

THANKS to everyone from whyalla had much fun kiteboarding there!! Looking foward to coming down and catching up with you all again!

Finchy,
If you are coming up to Whyalla make sure that you enter the comp.
Entry fee alone gets you a rashie and puts you in the draw for a new kite, good value. We are not too serious about the specific technical side of the comp and are more about having fun, pulling big moves, getting heaps of kites out on the water and generally showing off kiteboarding to the rest of the public. I also forgot about the party afterwards!!!

Hope to see you there.

Cheers

is this a kite comp or a birthday party.. .Becasue it was my 35th birthday last week as well, so its a 3 way birthday party then...

The wind and weather is looking sick, for the weekend.. The body is getting ready, it seem many of the boys have been training this weeking in drinking at the ****'n'fest.

so stoked..

The last week in Whyalla has been sick. Wind, wind and more wind. Last couple of days have kicked in as the tide turned, 25-30 knots, some excellent sessions.
I will post some video in the next couple of days. Hopefully the recent run of good days continues until next weekend.
See you all in Whyalla.

Cheers

AB

Looks like Whyalla is still top of the drinking and blowing capital of SA. Hope it goes off for you all.
Have a good one
