Thanks for the word Christophe. Hope your traditional pull with the wind gods has been restored and we'll be served up with even more wind than predicted tomorrow. It's happened before after all.

yes it did , and will happen again.
South wind in crandon is always stronger than predicted. one correction thjough, we made a typo for the tide, Low tide is at 9am and low tide around 3pm.
but we are gonna get 15kts on saturday and 13 kts on sunday
that's it.

The kiteshop will run a Fun Paddle board COntest for public and riders.

we see you tomorrow.

Non Competitors
 

I haven't been to one of these events before. Will non competitors have a chance to ride?

I really don't know. Christophe will have to answer that one. I believe if non-competitors are allowed to ride they will have to have the certification, insurance, registration required the rest of the year to ride at Crandon. If the management imposes the 25 max. kiter on the water rule then non-competitors will have a lesser chance of being able to get out.

So, not sure. Over to you Christophe ...
