Hi all,

Just to let you guys know we've just launched a new website detailing great downwinders around the world.

Its primarily designed for kiters with a bias towards those that love their downwinders. But its also for kiters who like to do the odd downwinder after a great freestyle session. Downwinders can sometimes take a bit of organising and hopefully it will give you all the information you need.

Part of the site is in blog format. Anyone can leave a comment but if you want to leave a more creative post with images and content, please create an account and log in.

You can also contribute a downwinder directly by using the Add Downwinder tab to log your favourite.

Hope you find it useful and if you have any downwinders coming up, wherever they are, let us know all the details

www.downwindheaven.com
www.downwindheaven.com/blog

Check out the facebook page as well!

Noice!

Also nice to see folks smashing the lip hooked in - these days you'd think that was illegal or sumpin and you would be bashed by a crew of un-hooked vigilantes! [}:)]

Next thing you know it will be possible for kiters in seat harnesses to get amongst the waves. Lord forbid - maybe even on twin tips!! Crikey!!

BTW, my wifey still laughs everytime I mention the term 'downwinder', "he he - I'd rather be upwind of you!" she says.. Hey she is good enough to pick me up at the end of it so I give a courteous laugh and pretend it's not the 150th time I've heard it.

Yeah, but I don't understand why we should tell the rest of the world where they are?

I agree with tobes.....soon we'll be visited by down winder junkies in Amazing Race format...please save us! Good idea, but where are the revenues? And what do you get for adding content?
