find a wave ,ride it ,enjoy !!
who cares who's looking at you or what other s think is "who is the best". (usually ends up in a fight over strapped vs unstrapped ,judging criteria and **** like that with no respect for the poor old smose that organise it and volunteer their time )
Tho I must admit "events,get togethers etc "can be good fun and a great opportunity to catch up ,swap notes,learn and improve and seem to be pretty popular (mamabo,kitestock ,hookstock ) a loose judging format can add a bit of spice .100 kiters , families friends etc turning up to a spot in a 'downtime 'would be a good reason for a local community to get behind it (caravan park local businesses ,council )
Perhaps a kite"surf"stock could be an idea (in WA or somewhere where there is reliable wind and waves) This place could be a contender and a great excuse to visit a pretty magical part of OZ
