Speedweek 2008 Announcement

Wednesday, 09 July 2008 | Written by

Hi All,

Extreme Kites will not be running a meet down at Sandy Point this November.

Gav and I have looked and discussed this a number of times and were half-half about which way we would go. Instead for this summer we are working with a number of shops locally in Victoria and a few interstate to put together some Demo Days.

The low tides for Speed Week are:

Sat 0843 / 2045
Sun 0916 / 2122
Mon 0950 / 2157
Tues 1025 / 2230

With that in mind, and the high-tide being at the peak of the day we have decided it isn't worth booking accommodation and organising the meet. The tides for Labor Day Weekend in March are looking more positive with the low tides between 13:00 and 16:00, so we will focus on organising a meet in March.

For Victorian members keep your eyes on the GKC and if you haven't joined do so, as there are monthly races and meets happening.

Extreme Kites will be running a number of Demo Days for both land and water this summer, with 5 shops / manufacturers committed to helping us make these a success. Keep your eyes out for these as we organise them as they will be happening around Australia!

Regards,

.Joel
