  1. I recently moved to toowoomba from the coast. Have been kitting for several years on the water but am now looking at options in the local area with a mountainboard Got a mountain board and several kites, anyone know of some good spots to go for a run on the mountainboard with a kite? Have tried local ovals but currently they are all littered with goal posts for other sport. Done a bit of downhill but still looking for a good open space for a kite.
  2. Wow is this year really getting a wriggle on? Counting down the days now till we get to Yeppoon for the annual get together. Easter is the full moon so that equals big tides. The beach is wide anyway but this means extra room to play The tidal creek across the beach is usually a non event this time of the year because of this. I fly into Rockhampton on the 26th March and leave on the 28th of April based at Driftwood right on the beach in Todd Ave. I posted my kites, helmet and armour last Wednesday so it's there ready for when I arrive. (Cheers Bernie for your help in this regard, your a champion ) So guys who else can make it this year.
  3. Good Friday falls on the 19th of April. Chook is already booked in at Driftwood from March 28th until April 26th. Who else is making the trek? Don't forget to RSVP on the event to let everyone know you are coming along
  4. All prices AUD. PANSH Aurora 1 (yellow black, standard) closed cell surf or land kite + bag + 5-line bar - 12m. $250 - REDUCED AirRush Crest 12.5m open-cell snow/land kite + bag only. $120 - REDUCED RRD Type-9 12m LEI + pump + bag + bar and lines (pink/white scheme). $250 Postage negotiable
  5. until
    Well 2016 is well under way and once again we are heading to Yeppoon for Easter. This year the Easter weekend is at the end of March, the 25th to the 28th to be exact, but as usual there will be some of us that stay longer. To be honest, there was only a few of us that showed up last year and although we still had a great time, I hope to see more people there this year.
  6. For all things Marcia Predicting Category 5 now, I think that warrants its own thread. Last nights prediction Tonight's prediction (things are getting serious now.) Creal Reef station is reporting 139km/hr and -25C (something definite strangeness going on near the eye) Hope everyone affected stays safe and comes out the other side OK
  7. I've just applied for a job in Brisbane and if successful will need to move to Brizvegas! I have no idea if I will get the job or not but one of the things I need to do is start thinking about where I want to live. The company is located on Upper Edward St in Spring Hill and I'm told it has good access to public transport. Any suggestions of places within a reasonable reach of Brisbane that also offer good opportunity for Kite Buggying? :)
  8. Anyone keen for Kingscliff at lunch time tomorrow? (yeah, I know it's not QLD) http://www.windfinder.com/forecast/coolangatta
  9. We normally stay at the driftwood units. But probably anywhere around that area is good. We usually base ourselves on the beach out the front of the units as its a quiet area of the beach without too many people. The event is defiantly kid and family friendly. Wolfie usually has his buggy trailer there, taking people for rides and we all have small kites that the kids can borrow to static fly if they want. Even if the kids aren't into kiting, they are still at a great beach and holiday town. The only issue is to tell the kids that they need to watch out for the buggies and don't just run across the beach. Hope to see you there in 2014
  10. http://www.townsvillebulletin.com.au/kite_festival.html Not sure if they will allow buggies or even land kites! This looks to be purely a single-line kite event.
  11. https://www.facebook.com/groups/Townsvillelandkiters/ All welcome!
  12. Hi to the Queenslanders. I am doing a trip up and around Townsville and up to the tip of the gulf leaving Adelaide the end of june, I was wondering if their are beaches or any sand dunes that I can buggy on . most important thing is their many beaches or places that you are not allowed to go to ,due to councils regulations. I look forward to hereing back if their is any great places .CHEERS.
  13. speaking of all manner of kiteing. I dont know if I had anything to do with it but ever so slowly more and more little stunt kites started sprouting up in the air where I was on farnborough today was awesome like a mini kite festival bout half a dozen at one time hahaha was very difficuly to not jump over there and smash them all with my big kite I decided I looked like enough of a knob allready tho with the tripods n helmet cams and failing to do the simplest of tricks. but yeah thats awesome that some of you will be here for the 2 weeks I approached the local kiters down in that little wind window that you said do the gki crossing. they only go from gki to farnborough slackers, and they kite down there so people can watch them ...... hahaha *sigh* some people ay hahaha but yeah coastguard gave me a heads up and some advice so next time suns out and steady light wind im going to kite to pumpkin island aka XXXX ISLAND! how good is that?! I had no idea it was in yeppoon and its closer then GKI I reckon those of you that have boards should raid XXXX island maybe its where they keep all the promo girls I could even get my photo with them

  17. No wind for weeks here in sunny Bundy, anyone down south by anychance had any northerlies come through? Light westerlies and very light SE coming in this avo, so it must be on it's way sometime soon. For those up north, the turn around on the trades happens generally later in the season traditionally. But who knows, the wind is changing as ocean temps change.
  18. Hi there to all. I will be visiting Cairns from the 14th Jan for 2 weeks. I was wondering if someone up there may be able to lend me a bug here and there for a few blasts about. Await a reply.

    BBQ

    Well, I think its time for another BBQ. Looking at early-mid September, dates pretty flexible , location this time is Bray Park, so more convenient for Northsiders, families etc welcome and we have a lot more room than last year. Jill of course will be doing ribs and a few other things, BYO drinks, and any catering assistance welcome. Let us know best dates, and a few prelim numbers and we will pick a best time/date accordingly.
