I will be away till the end of jan. but if anyone is interested in meeting up let me know and either post or email me a contact number and i will be in touch. cw

I've been flyin kites for a few years now, I'm not that good but i can do enought to amuse myself! I have recently started flying on the water and it has come to my attention that this is not a good idea to go solo! I'm just looking for people in the North Cornwall area or those who are looking to fly in the area to go with as i have recently moved to the area and dont know anyone that enjoys kitesurfing yet! I know that there are some clubs available but due to work comitments i have found it difficult to find and join a club. So anyone in the area that needs a kitesurfing buddy or a group that doesn't mind someone to tagging along please reply and/or email me at little.webby@gmail.com See you out there.

Hi, I'm off to LES MENUIRES (somewhere in france!) in Jan to go snow boarding. I'm a keen kitesurfer/buggy/landboarder and have an array of water launchable and ram air kites. I've not tried snowkiteing yet but hoping to in Jan. Does anyone know if there are any sites in les menuires where it is possible to snow kite and what size kite is recommended?

When applying for BKSA membership it gives you the opertunity to join the local club in your area for £5. and as i live in Bodmin, Cornwall the local club is ment to be Sickair! so i put the extra £5 in to the membership but as i have not heard from The BKSA I dont know whats going on!

Hi Tom. I'm not sure who to contact to join sick air but i have heard that they're not a very active club! However there is a new club in the preliminary stages of getting going, to find out more call either Dave or Reuben at Reactive sports (Plymouth) for more details (01752 255999). Hope this helps. Chris.

I was just wondering if anyone else has had any problems with the BKSA? I filled out the application form on the internet printed it off, posted it with cheque for £30 for membership(£25) and to enter a club (£5 sick air - which is the local one for me!) and i have not as yet heard anything back! the cheque has not been cashed and it has been almost 2 months (sent on 18th Oct 04) and i get the feeling i'm not gonna get any response! What should i do? does anyone know of any other organisations like BKSA (but ones that actually reply to you!)?
