Matt Sexton put together a nice report for The Kiteboarder on the background of the event, what Joby and Forrest have accomplished, and wrap up results.

...Also, thanks to some great administrative networking the organizers worked with the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers and the Port of Hood River to lower the water level providing the riders with flat water and a good event location despite the sandbar having been underwater for the entire season...


Holy crap! That's some major support from local infrastructure. Nice job!!!! Thumb's Up
