Acronyms can end up being old fashioned and dorky. Maybe you're better off just being Australian Womens kitesurfing association and come up with a logo.


I agree. Way too much acronyms in the Australian Kiteworld. Lets be a bit more creative and brainstorm about something new and fresh, like we are

kite pipas
air betties
aqua foxies
pink winds
boarderonas
...

i'd be embarrassed saying I belong to most of those.
Pink winds......maybe after too much fairy floss
Acronym based on the fact that i come from WACK
Quite liking the AKWA

As for the dyke comments see Woodies comment

As for the keep out of your way comment...I'd deliberately get in the way of someone who thought they owned the ocean.

Good laughs I think we have a winner. Now to bring it off this forum to the ladies....most don't really go on here.

I dont mind what u call it but please try and stay out of the way....


hahahaha

this right here is why girls are really pushing their involvement in the sport. Because in kiting there is a really chauvanistic culture (probably inherited from surfing) where guys think they own the water. Just a heads up mate... there are probably a whole lot of girls that are heaps better than you.

i more have a prob with guys getting in my way because they just assume they are awesome and that they should show off their little boosts right in front of the girls. The girls around here are better then most of the guys, and you know what, most the guys are really supportive of that.




sorry i coming in very late here but did i read "where guys think they own the water "
I'm not a girl kiter but i don't see any evidence of that in our local kiting community at all ,Maybe where you are but not here .Girl kiters here are passionate about their kiting and they rip .Correct me if i'm wrong but haven't there been a number of kiting intro days around the country where not only women kiters give up their time to help new women kiters but blokes help out too?

Yeah not much of it around but blow in's are usually to blame. Nothing a few games of chicken won't fix.

Funny how this has become male v female. I wouldn't be a kiter if it wasn't for the instructors I had (all male) and the crew at pinnas (back then 99.98% male).

Yes it's devastating being a girl having to hang out at parties which are mostly male...some of which are in my age bracket and have a tendency to be ripped.

Wait why am i promoting these girls groups.......probably because of the most awesome chick kiter i know Kristine Bose.

Blahh blahh blaah I think we can close the post now so that all the boys can go back to pulling the crap out of eachother

See told you - TL is the ultimate Ladies MAN
Ive long wondered at his talent
Reckon it must be an underlying empathatic connection coming from his strongly disguised; but obvioulsy potent; 'feminine side'

Whatever we could all benefit from a dose!

the only reason its male vs female is because guys don't really need to justify themselves by starting a group saying 'look at me'..

That's what it's all about so it sounds. Girls segregate themselves by organising groups for women only and start facebook groups.. Guys just tend to bring a few beers down the beach in an esky and don't really care too much.. and ultimately take it for what it is.

aksa is a group that covers all kiters. Why are women so special that they need their own groups such as wack and akwa???

why does it have to be so difficult? I'll await the fire that the ladies send my way...
