Happy Spring PNW Kite Crew and all the ladies!
The gals are heading down to South Padre Island for some warm wind and water to kick start the season! After all, the Columbia, at 47 degrees, has a little warming up to do, and learning is much more enjoyable at 75!
So, if you're heading down, keep in mind that the Womens Kiteboarding Association is putting on two clinics and one SESSION with the crew at South Padre Island Kiteboarding the weekend of April 14th.
The Diva Sessions: Not so much a clinic, but a LADIES' SESSION!
Casual meet at North Flats at 10 am or when the wind is blowing! A fun and informal riding session with intermediate and advanced women riders. No formal instruction, but tips and technique will be offered.
When: Friday, April 13th! 10am Cost: FREE! For more info, email tonia@womenskiteboarding.com.
Clinic #1: Women's Beginner Trainer Kite Clinic
This clinic will teach the wind window, kite flying and control, safety, and launching & landing.
When: Saturday, April 14th, 10-Noon, Cost: $50. Register online at http://womenskiteboarding.com/events.html
Clinic #2: Women's Intermediate/Advanced Maneuvers Clinic
Tailored to each student's ability, this course will focus on transitions, carving, ollies and jumps, and if the student is ready -- rolls and grabs.
When: Saturday, April 14th, 2-5 pm, Cost: $299. Register through SPI Kiteboarding: Call 956-772-1098 or go to http://southpadreislandkiteboarding.com/SPIKClinics.html
Slingshot, North Kiteboarding, Dakine, SPI Kiteboarding, SBC, and WKA are all kicking down decent swag for attendees of the clinics. Laura Maher, Tonia Farman, and the gals from SPI Kiteboarding will be instructing at both clinics.
And if we don't see the gals at the clinics, hopefully we'll see all the ladies riding with us! See you on the water! |
