Looks like the wind gods have come to settle at the Goldie.

14 out of the last 16 days have been windy.

The ride day scheduled for Sunday 9th March will be blessed with at least 20 to 25knts.

Can't wait

Well ....... We wanted wind and we sure got it.

The ride day was scheduled to commence at 11am. 11.01am wind speed was 30 to 41 knts.

It eventually settled down to a day of solid 25 to 30 knts with bright Gold Coast Sunshine.

Good roll up of socially minded kiters with the keenest hitting the large swell on a dropping tide.

The Slingshot Rev 11m kite was won by a very happy Tony Patrick of Hedges Ave, Mermaid Beach. What a great prize for an investment of only $20 !!! His comment when finally contacted was " Wow thats great, I have NEVER won anything in my life" He is now committed to joining the club.

The Huge Air COmp was keenly contested with some awesome performances by the wind jockeys. They kept the passing parade of beach walkers in awe of their aerial manouvers.

Some spectacular crashes by those pushing the limits were witnessed, with the ever increasing sandbar claiming a few victims.

The final winners were Johnno Horne, Steve Walker and Anton who took away some nice prizes.

Well done to all who joined in the competetion.

The surf was really solid and it was great to see the girls out there giving the big surf a workout. Angie, Terese, Kachina and some visiting lady kiters kept the guys honest and drew admiration from the crowd gathered along the esplanade.

Members enjoyed a barbecue lunch and were able to catch up with members from the length of the Gold Coast. Several new members joined at the event.

Thanks to all who helped make the day a success and we hope to see all at the next social event scheduled in the next few weeks.

It was great to see the usual faces,maybe the abundance of wind put some local crew off??? Maybe the next one should be held at Sheer???
