Miami Kiteboard Course Racing Regatta, Jan. 29, 30, 2011
Start your engines ... This is an important kiteboarding demonstration event part of the Miami Olympic Classes Regatta. This could be a first step in easing kiting into the Olympics. Here is some information from the official race site at: http://www.sailgroove.org/coverage/2...Racing-Regatta "This regatta is open to all kiteboarders! There will be a practice race on Friday, January 28th at 1600 hours. The scheduled time of the Warning Signal for the first race each day (Saturday & Sunday) is 1100 hours." I understand they will take competitors out to a nearby island to rig and launch by boat from Shake-A-Leg's facility in the Grove. http://www.shakealegmiami.org Folks wanting to practice on Friday will meet at this facility. More info on the event Facebook page at: http://www.facebook.com/event.php?ei...84369218244707 Important official information including entry forms at: http://www.sailgroove.org/coverage/2...Racing-Regatta A kite-side view of racing in lighter winds in Miami .
