Since starting the Wollongong Ilawarra group of kiteboarders there was a huge interest in being part or a proactive social scene that was dearly needed in our area. Although due to lack of support or other selfish reasons by Wollongong AKSA members this has now been put to rest. The general feeling is that this area is ours and outsiders arent welcome, which are NOT my veiws. Time spent trying to educate the locals about inviting others to share our beaches has been a complete failure. A shame really as this has been a big part of my summer trying to gather support and establish some sort of social outlet. The general feeling is not to promote this area as a great kiteboarding destination, which it is! A email has been sent to effected members informing my disappointments of this season and one could only hope things will and can change. Id like to thank the support of AKSA, NSWKBA and the hard working people behind the scene that make this sport worthwhile, ive given it a shot and now its time for somebody else to try and turn it around. Hopfully someday these guys will wake up to themselfs and realise that they arent the only water uses in this area.

YEP LOLNOT

Sean I think there would be a huge interest in the group if there was actually something proactive being done.

In the year that I have been kiting what exactly has been organised? The 3 or 4 times I have seen you you have never told me about a wollongong club.

what exactly do we need educating about ? there have been lots of non local kiters out this year and no one has had any problems.

maybe they need someone else to organise it who has a certain amount of social skills

2nd that one....maybe not the scene, just the self appointed face that leads it...
You know your always welcome back to our polluted, rat infested, swamp of Botany Bay, There's some guy's here that would love to have a chat with you Kytesrfn

As mentioned where has any non locals been not welcome, i always chat to a new kiter down there, and there has been social things happing too, it hold my sanity togeater.

I love you too Steve N :P ROFL

OK, lets get this into persective. This group started 18 or more months ago, so ive been active both in kitesurfing and trying to establish a committee since then up until after christmas. The committee was picked and notified, Shane you put your hand up to represent the Windang boys then put up a stink to say you now didnt want to do it, you know what im talking about so your input is invailed, oh and by the way 8 years doing kitesurfing can lead to some boredom in the sport and with age and the onset of ahernia directly related to the sport is a fair assumption that I can no longer do insane tricks of even risk breaking my back or other serious injuries, whos going to pay the bills. Leigh, yep I didnt end up finding the time to come around, your DVDs are safe, the wife hasnt chucked them out yet. Lets say well catchup soon. Macca, the freindly dude that you are your not really the stereo typical guy to point the finger at so count yourself invaild as well, no offence. Cabron, I hadnt noticed you around, not a local! Rack off noddy! Dont expect me to be visting soon, Botany is far to fly blown for my liking these days, ill leave that to the steriod boys. That last point to mention is that NSWKBA needs somebody as a rep from this area and I expect nobody to be putting there hand up. Sad as it is as I was the only guy traveling to Sydney for meetings and not once did I spot another kiter from my area. So dam typical, we all enjoy this sport but nobody will do any of the promotion of AKSA and NSWKBA that is critical to this sport. Funny enough how many of you guys are members? Doesnt insurance become a priority, its all too late when the s##t goes down. On closing, isnt wonderful how powerful the humble computer can be.

it was the same with the board riders 20 years ago thats why i got out of thereonly locals aloud at the beach, it come from bellambi piont just before easties redneck locals you know were the crap is

The only good kiters in Wollongong come from botany bay. Wollongong should be called Zoobaland. They don't even ride drop knee. What are you gonna do at meetings anyway? Practise POPPING off, spinning out, different holds of the bar. Or just hold erections I mean elections.

it's Zoobagong thank you. where's botany gay anyway is that somewhere for dolly boys

If the wollongong scene is DEAD, the south coast scene is half decomposed, with maggots crawling around in the eye sockets feeding on the last scraps of it's stinky remains.
Just the way I like it.

i didn't even relise we had a corpse, toby... there's still spirit, though mate.

And rightly so, with all this AWSOME wind we've been getting.

What do you mean I remember back in the old days watching kytesuffering do insane backloops to arse plant and claim them with a double fister.

sounds like your not happy just upsetting gong kiters by haveing a go at the dolls point blokes[and chicks sorry ladies] . the next club north is at longreef .your not making friends.you should quit while your a behind.
