And yet, isn't there something conspicuous in its absence?

Will it be fun? Will there be tons of kites to try? Will there be an RV? Will there be amazing people who absolutely shred at kiteboarding? Will there be free food?

Answer to all is YES!

Currently at the Airport in Spain getting all stoked for some Rufus shredding!

All the camping you could possibly ever imagine. It's all dredged river rock, so bring a mattress if you're sleeping on the ground.

well, if you consider passing out in the bushes "camping" then yes, you can camp until the po-po finds you.

What an enjoyable first day of the demo weekend! Ok, it wasn't 6m and blasting sand but very nice big kite wind and a chance to demo some really nice light wind kites and boards! Thanks Windance for a great first day! It's nice to just cruise and play in mild conditions, especially after the intense last couple of weeks. Wouldn't want it all the time but enjoyable once and awhile. Conditions look similar tomorrow so go get some!

thanks to all for the demo today! It was really helpful and informative to be able to fly so many different kites back-to-back. I've been looking for a light wind kite, so today was great for narrowing down the choices.

yeah thanks again Dave and Windance and the reps.
I didn't make it on every kite available but was great opportunity to ride different kites back to back to really understand those subtle differences.
let's do it again real soon
