Sorry if this was an X factor audition it would be a NO from me.

Well done on capturing an expensive couple of days of kite surfing. Looks consistant with the weather we had a month ago. Cost of kiting worked out to be about $400/hr of actual kiting. There's better value to be had here in Nth Qld over the winters months. Be interesting to know others feedbank.

I wouldn't recommend this trip for beginners!

Nice one!

Even without allot of kiting Fiji is an awesome place :)

August Bali trip cost me about $2.30 per hour of kiting, and $2 of that was bintang. I know where ill be going next year...

@ Mattho I went last year on this trip (with the sydney guys) and i had a blast, best thing i ever did. At the time i would have considered myself as a seasoned beginner hahaha, had been doing it for a year or so but had only really got our on the water a handful of times. This trip let me get the skills and confidence i needed to really get me out and cracking. so i have to disagree with your comment about it not being suitable for beginners. Like any holiday though it will suit some better than others, i live in canberra so never get much kite time so this trip suited me to a T.

In regards to your comment about $400/hr for kiting. I was there for 7 days, i got 6 days of flat out kiting 8 hours a day (although i never lasted the full 8 hours haha) i was on my 8m every single day, had plenty of options on where to go aswell, so i would have to disagree with that comment also. But like any kiting it is luck of the draw, sometime the wind shows up, sometimes it does not, doesn't mean the trip is always a waste of time.

here is my rating

Value: 7
Kiting: 9 (please not iam still very much a NOOB of thsi sport so it doesnt take much to please me)
Food: 10
Accommodation: 7 (Basic but comfortable)
Hospitality: 8

that is my 2 cents. Greggor glad you had a good time, i know i had a ball.

Good to hear you guys got some good kiting in the end. Thanks again for your friendly hospitality, I learned heaps on the day we tagged along.
Cheers, Bobby (from the yacht).

Hey Bobby, your absolutely welcome, the next few days were the best after you left, did you end up going to Namotu? If your ever up in Brissy look us up and we can show you around and have a kite.

If you surf, kite, skin dive and fish go to Fiji. you won't be dissapointed.

Thanks Lofty, no Jon didnt come, from memory he had just gotten back from his own kite trip. I would love it if Jon had a demo chrono, we would of gotten a bit more kite time with one but its an expensive technical piece of gear to allow us amateurs to jet off alone with it. I circled where the resort is. It is basically a 4 hour bus trip and a 30min boat trip to the Island, are you looking at going?
