Anyone else thinking of heading over from the east to west for kitestock in Febuary

Layed back relaxed non wankers only apply. It an event for the non tosser.

how can that be so, if it's in WA?

Unless going for about a month I have ruled out driving
3 days solid each way to perth = 6 days of annual leave
Plus fuel plus 8k on car mileage
With other trips in the planning next year, it's not worth the time

we will be there with bells on from 11/01 onwards.

cant wait to catch up with the WA crew, the Doc and the amazing coast

Sure, agreed.

So what does that limit our gear to?

I'd like 2 kites, a surfboard and a twin tip.

Plus clothes and a toothbrush.

Can we fly from Williamtown, of do we have to go to Sydney?

It would be a great trip, I have never been there and would really like to go.

u've obviously never been

so it's not a kiting event then..?

Señor ric!
I am considering the trek west for kitestock. I can get return flight for under $400. what accom. were u thinkin? What day would you fly out/back? I already have approval for a week off in feb. The Filthy filthy West calls!

I wonder if I can squeeze 2 x kites and 2 x surfboards in under 23 kgs. One rashie, thongs, sunscreen. I'll wear my harness on the plane if I have to

Edited to say: booked my flights, I'm comin!!

Hey joe

Indoneasia kiting in July
Fiji kiting in september
Merimibula kiting in November
Plus who knows what else

Rick, if I wasn't so content being me .............

I'd wish I was you ........................

I found out today a training course I really want to attend is on the 11th Feb. Bad news for my kitestock attendance prospects.

However, on a happier note, I have approval for Isle of Man TT attendance in May.

Ah, can't win em all.

How's the nose Rick? Hope not too sore.

Heard you went back out after the hospital visit.

I kinda picked that.

Core mate.

Kitestock - Check!!!

The good thing for us east coasters that we can leave on like a 7pm flight, and arrive in WA 9pmish - so only really a day or 2 off work!!!

Accommodation booked only few mins for the beach

Flights booked

Kite gear ready for update
