Looking good guys- super fired up for this one. If you are trying to decide whether to go or not, just do it! Rad crew and an awesome spot to ride.

Hi Jamdfinger, the Whyalla comp is a very friendly freeride style event with people of all age and skill levels on the water. Last year the riders voted who the best riders were through out the day and the top riders in each group had a final run.

The comp isn't just freestyle there is also upwind and downwind racing, sliders, boardercross, fancy dress and skimboard comps plus there is a lot of other novelty prizes for people that are just getting out and giving it a go. So even if your not a fierce competitor it is worth entering the comp to get the free T-Shirt and be eligible to win other prizes.


When the tide is out in whyalla there is not going to be a lot of room east of the sandbar where most people will be ridding, but there is another lagoon on the other side that you will safely be able to cruse around, as the tide comes in there will be over 1km of flat water with only a small amount of it being taken up by competitors. So wether you enter the comp or not there will definitely be a good chance for you to get out and have a ride, then come in at the end of the day and watch the finals and enjoy a beer at the foreshore motor in that is 50m from the comp area.

yeh Jamdfinger i did my first whyalla comp a couple of years ago while i was still learning great place to ride with the shallow waters and a really good kite community who also know how to throw an awesome event i wouldn't miss this one seeyou all there

If anyone is confused....we are seperating the groups as we may have too many riders....ie-heat 1 will not ride in heat 2.There are no elimination heats,just ride hard in your heat to gain points!!! This comp isnt just about pro riders ,its for everyone ,just take a look at the prizes!!!!!

Apart from the above mentioned heats (1st and R-up) we will have prizes for-

Last overline
Best crash
Biggest air
Best Kitebitch
Most consistant
Best dressed in B-cross
Worst dressed in B-cross
King and queen of the Gulf (most points thru-out comp)

And also everyone that enters will be in the draw for 20 prizes at the presentations (must be present).

So all the more reason to HIT Whyalla sat 4th december!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

Looks like I will be heading up for the day only by myself.

Anyone want a lift.

Let me know.

Danny

And also forgot to mention ...if you dont want to hit the slider/kicker then you also have at least 30 mins to freeride after the downwinder even more time on the water !!!!! We will also have the slider/kicker set up during the Freestyle comps,50m upwind from comp zone for anyone to hit.
So that takes time on the water to 2.5 hrs for everyone to enjoy!!!
Hope that answers any questions Stew, always happy to help!

Hey Crew, Stoked for the new Format..
