Speaking of Mullaloo- had an awesome kite today. To the guys ripping unstrapped. I enjoyed watching ya ripping ( BWS kiter) ( red Slingshot). Great punting in the waves!

Hey TL, it was a good session, especially as you didnt snap ur board today

Was that a surfboard you were on?

i think there's enough info out there about mullaz's especially as these guys were not noobs

to the 2 kiters today at mullaz doing a downwinder towards pinner,s at 4.00p.m,
a white & black rrd (average kite skills) and his mate on a white & brown f-one b3(good kite skills) you d--kheads

hey, these guys sound familiar...

I tried to pull up some kiters last season for kiting the shore line (when there was swimmers, clubbies, beach volleyball) between the 2 groins at city beach. They basically ignored me and kept on going - wtf? There was three of them this time - 2 on RRD Religions and 1 with a F-one Bandit just like you described.

Theyre probably about 40yrs old, give or take a few years. I saw them a few times last season doing downwinders, either 2 or 3 of them...being morons

the one on the b3 was def of a mature age, time for a deliberate kite tangle and quick release of death leash
on a brighter note, just back from a awesome sess, mullaz at its best
gave the new 5 6" whip a powered up workout

we're nearing the start of the season and allready your giving ammo to the clubbies, snakeing through the swimmers in front of the surf club 5-10 metres offshore can only mean you must be deaf, dumb & complete c--kheads,
the sport really needs people like you 2

pffft whatever, if you were swimming today you probably would've drowned anyway, why does it matter if it's a kiter that hits you, it's the same outcome as what would've happened.

There was 4 teenagers playing in the shallows north of the surf club around 3pm yesterday.

Just south of the yellow marker on the beach.

This gets me thinking......say if they were swimming where everyone launches and lands from. Are kiters actively telling swimmers to shove off down to the surf club?

Or is it swim at own risk?

If you had a brain you would notice this was addressed to yesterday.
And IMO i would rather get slammed by a wave than get sliced by a gutless idiot who would probably be too much of a coward to admit that he was in the wrong.

I windsurf at mullaloo a lot, and usually by myself. I have absolutely no problems with kiters as I used to kite a lot. I have seen 2 instances in the last week where kiters have been kiting out of the kite surf zone to the north, by about 200-300 meters. On each occasion a walker(who I know sails but was just walking that day) pointed towards the zone to the kiters playing in the shore break, twice on separate days they have been given the finger. If that was a councilor, surf clubbie, ranger.... I am sure that would add plently of fuel to the fire. Makes you wonder how many times they are doing that every session as they didn't know who this walker was from anyone. Then the other day, I saw 3 guys setting up, about 300 meters north. I politely said to them that I personally have no problems with them as I kite as well up at pinneroo, but the signs down the beach say no kiting up here, the response I got was, its ok, we just launching from here. I said that the kiters down there will be pretty annoyed as they fault hard to get that little patch, the response to that was just a shrug, and its ok we just doing a down winder, to which they just carried on laying lines out and walked off.

So good luck there mullaloo kiters sounds like a few will spoil the party for the rest of you doing the right thing.

The start of the season is just around the corner & in light of this post, it's an appropriate time to remind all kiters of the launch/landing zone at Mullaloo Beach.

Please refer to this link if you need more information & follow the signs along that stretch of coast about where to (and where not to) launch/land.

Local kiters and WAKSA fought long & hard to keep access open. It will be tragic if the beach is lost due to a minority who ignore local advice and issues.

wishy you normally post some great stuff, but ya dropped the ball with this one. While I agree that certain conditions it amazes me people are swimming it doesn't matter. Hit a swimmer and the curtain could easily close, especially if they are a person of 'influence' or a relative at least.

Fair call.
Don't kite out the front of surfclubs, meatheads

If you call the water police,will they respond and or take any action without the help of the SLSC. If not what are we supposed to do so the clubs know it's the d'''heads and not the regular kiters.
Are the local clubs maned at this time of year .
