Maybe they are scared of what's beneath the water out in the deep chanel.

If you can kite, why don't you move to more spacious water.

I think you should develop more skill in in dogging kites as this has been like this for ever and I don't think it will ever change. Itd just the nature of the game. Just enjoy the sport and work around the challenges. Life is too short. Kite till your arms fall off

We all started on the beach, you have to start somewhere, and we all had moments were we got in the way of other kiters, it is our responsibility to look out for other kiters especially beginners, there is other beaches you can kite at higher, we are all a very close knit group of kiters here, we look out for each other, if you don't have the same attitude, there is plenty more beaches for you to kite at. (kite for life)

If your such a pro rider what are you doing kiting near the beach? Once your away from the beach its pretty spread out and way smoother. If people like you werent in their way theyd probably learn alot quicker. Good luck trying to mark your territory pro rider higher

Thank you for your feedback Higher. Sorry if things were too congested for you, high tide does make the beach quite small. I am sure we will all do as much as we can to keep that area clear throughout the season. In the normal course everyone does keep the beach area clear and kiters entering the water have right of way.

As Bigguy98 said, we have a great group of kiters at Loders Creek (aka KFC); we enjoy summer to the max, look out for each other and everyones gear and basically share the area with respect for others. Whether its a a sic handle pass, styilsih boost or a 12yr year old student gettting up on the board for the first time, we all share the stoke; come on down and join us!

Cheers

P.S. Please always feel free to discuss any concerns with me at any time. I am more than happy to receive constructive comments, but I do prefer speaking face to face as Forum threads sometimes become septic, which is not how it is amongst the crew at Loders.

Hey there Higher, I'm from brizzy and come down to loaders every now and then, the locals are all an ok bunch , the guys are right once you get out just stay out until your done for the sesh, if pulling tricks or riding right near the shoreline is your thing then maybe try another spot along the broad water or head to one of the beach areas like Narrow Neck plenty of open space there

Gilly's... So how did you go big fella, did they give you plenty of space for the epic session you must of had on the broad water today. I was thinking of you while I was in hot roof dragging wires and lifting solar panels. Hope to get out on the water Sunday with the wife, she said you were absolutely carving it up in the strong winds. Kate hopes your wife will comes out on the water and kites with us.

With all the talk about sharks and congestion, I don't think I have any chance of getting Mrs Gilly out there. Don't mean to rub it in Stormy but Kate and I had an awesome session
She is totally shredding!!
Can't quite work out what higher is on about, there were just as many kiters there yesterday as there was on Sunday and there were no issues. Even had a few down from Brisvegas to enjoy our playground.
Bring on the northerlys yeeeeeeew!!!
Fark the southerlys......... Was freeeezing yesterday

Peace out........
