The ranger has already approached kiters, and if you are going to kite there, make sure you set up and pack up further up the beach. He wants us to set up further up the beach, past the chair up towards the little pier thing.
The ranger in balnarring is very much in the dark on kiters

Hi,

I am sad to hear those news and hope we won't lose this site (or any other one) as it is beautiful!

In France, in the paragliding community we have a board at every official flying site (launch and landing areas) reminding general rules and explaining specifications about the site (potential dangers, sensitive issues, advice on where to set up, most of the time using diagrams/maps of the area and contact details of people in the know, ...). It only costs a piece of wood and a plastified printed sheet and really helps everyone. It also shows to other users that the community is aware of the discomfort it can generate and that it's doing it's best, which means that if some individuals are not respecting those rules, they are the only ones to blame, not the whole community.

It's just an idea of what could be done either by some locals of a site or schools, whoever! I'm only a beginner in kite surfing and wouldn't be the best person to do it, but I am more than happy to help: I have a laminator and I can even provide some wooden boards that I am about to give away.

I too have seen some bad behavior at Balnarring.
On a Busy Sunday, dead onshore and every body was riding right on the shore line with no regard to right of way or kite high / kite low rules.
Im new to kiting but managed to get out of the shore line chaos by going, and staying upwind a bit giving myself a bit of room.
It was as if the better you think you are, the closer to the shore and other people you put yourself and your kite!
Every rule in the book was being broken that day, not good for the sport!
