OPEN SEASON
The annual season opener will be held at Largs Sailing Club this year on
15/10/2011 from 11-3. There'll be a FREE BBQ,all the 2012 gear to trial.
This is a good event to bring down a friend who's new to the sport and
introduce them to the crew. It's the ideal spot to talk to the shops about the
new gear and if Huey cooperates get sometime on the water

Onboard will be there with a heap of 2012 gear to demo out.. Stewie will be on the beach to ask question try stuff or even just enjoy looking at the wicked new stuff..

WOW, Could you ask for a better day. The wind is looking great and hopefully all the showers clear up early. With all the local shops, distributors and kite schools there with displays and demo's, it's the perfect way to check out all the gear. Remember everyone is welcome and you don't need to be a SAKSA member.

Hope to see you all there, Cheers Croc

Well you could not have scripted that any better, sun shining and the wind blowing at 20 knots. What a great day, standing from the beach looking out and seeing all the kites was an awesome site. It was a perfect way to start the season.
A massive thankyou to everyone who came down to Largs today and to all the shops, distributers and helpers that helped make it such a great day.

Once again a massive thanks to the Adelaide kiting community.

PS, If anyone found a near new slingshot pump in there gear that isn't their's. Send kitecroc or saksa a pm, so we can help it find its way back to its parents. Also a twin tip was found on the rocks at North Haven by a local resident. If you think it's yours, follow the same procedure, Cheers

Thank you to all the gods and distributors, I'm still pumped from yesterday.
Demo'd 3 brand new 2012 kites in 25 knots and
I'm spewing I missed out on the Switchy.
Yea ! it did look wild to see all those kites in the air at about 3 oclock when I rocked up.
Great day for everyone as far as I could see.

Hey Troy, the best way is to join the saksa Facebook group or keep an eye on this forum on seabreeze.

Cheers
