Just a quick update:
We have a great forecast with new snow and good winds. Looks like the entire week will be good. There's already a crew out here from hood River and so far the winds have eluded us .
A quick reminder that snow park permits are required for the parking at the event.
Big thanks to AIRTIME kite repair and SBC kiteboard magazine, our latest event Sponsors!

anyone have room for me to crash on a floor somewhere Fri night?
happy to pay my share, of course.
If I'm not competing in the comps, can I still free ride there? Or is there not enough room...

Awesome SOKA! Cashed so many chips in this winter to experience snowkiting or I would have been there without a doubt but was there in heart. Will catch you next year.
