Well I hope everyone had a great summer, and kited enough to be able to make the "Downwind Race"...Well it is back on Again...I know that Mother Nature did not help Us in Feb, Mar, and even Apr., before I had to leave for the summer..Well I am going to be back home starting the 10th of Nov., and We are going to try and have the Event/Race on the 13th or 14th of Nov. If that weekend does not happen, then I plan to try and run it every weekend after that til the 12th of Dec....So get your gear ready, get your body ready, and start praying for WIND...Now We all know, that it is winter time coming soon, so most likely the Winds will be out of the North, which means that we will start the race in Cocoa Beach, and go to Vero Beach...Get your teams together, get your transportation crew ready, and lets go have a ton of fun in the Ocean with Mother Nature pushing Us to Our limits...Yeah...If you want more info, go to My website..www.kitetricity.com...I will be posting reply's and updates daily, after everyone reads this post...So tell All your friends...IT IS ON...btw, Windsurfers are more than welcome to be part of this too..We are all in the same family, "Wanting to Ride Mother Nature"....

We here at Kitetricity Kiteboarding and VooDoo Stand-Up Paddleboarding are getting geared up for the downwinder...We are posting this to ask a simple question..."How Many People Can or Might be Coming"...We are trying to get a head count for the Hilton, where We will be having Our per-party..They are also going to work with Us on the room rates for the weekend..So if you know that you are coming for sure, let Us know, if your thinking about it, let Us know that too..We know that if it does not happen on the weekend of the 13th/14th of Nov., then it rounds over to the next weekends, etc...If need be, We will be doing it the weekend of Thanksgiving, because Thanksgiving is on Thursday, that gives everyone two days to spend time with their family, then come to the Event/Race and burn off that Turkey....
We are still Hoping for that "One Ticket Winner" prize from ANY Company out there, for the Raffle..i.e..Kite, Kiteboard, Surfboard, SUP, etc...Please let Us know if you have anybody that We can call and ask for that Prize..Thanks...

Well it has been an awesome week back here in Melbourne, so far..For some reason, the winds have been blowing here everyday since I have been back...Just got though doing two days of 15 mile downwinders, yesterday and today, of course getting ready for the Event/Race next month, starting the 13th of Nov...I am hoping that everyone else is getting wind, and getting your body ready for a "fast" Race...It is going to be hard to break that 2 hour and 18 minute time, or is it?..
We are still asking everyone that "might be coming", or "for sure coming" to the Event/Race, Please Let Us Know...It will help Us big time with the "head count" for the pre-party, and the "after party" at S.B.I...Thank-you for your response... That "One Ticket Winner" price is still somewhere out there...We are still looking for that item...We are asking for any help on this, feel free to reply.. Last years Event/Race went very smooth with the help of a Personal friend....Thanks Shawn Frank....We would like to ask, that if there is anyone that wants to be part of this Event/Race, volunteering wise, be sure to contact Us asap... We need help with: registration sign-up helping with the trophy event both finish-lines will need help with "landing kites" keeping eyes on the riders coming in helping with the "Official Time" coming in
