Hi - we would like to get in touch with anyone who on Monday witnessed our kiting friend lose his life whilst kiting in Dunsborough. The Police can not give his widow any information at this stage and she is desperate to speak to the person believed to have been rigging up while our friend was kiting who assisted and performed CPR, she just wants some kind of closure and understanding on what happened on Monday. Please if you are that person let us know as she would love to thank you and just have a chat -many thanks.

Sorry to hear this ? Was that eagle bay ??
There's been a few times I've gone to eagle bay for a session and it just looked choppy gusty and horrid... so didn't bother...
There's one chap I know that regularly kites eagle bay (if it was that...eagle bay..) ...in all conditions..but he's very experienced... maybe it was him..

What happened exactly ?..

There's a chap I met who lives there and wanted to learn there I advised him to go to augusta I hope it wasn't him..

Very sorry..

So sorry to hear this, that's awful news. I hope you have got some answers. If not, I also recommend you post under the General tab or the Facebook page, you might get more response there. Condolences.

Thank you no news yet, Dunsboroughs great in the NNE in Winter and we've been kiting with our friend for over 20 years so can't imagine it was a kiting accident, we now suspect a heart attack
