A friend of mine had the same idea - I think it would be an interesting challenge but tricky in 2 days. Its about 120km as the crow flies, probably 135km following the coastline.

With the right wind you can probably sustain 10-12km/hr downwind. That means you would need to be kiting for 13hrs or more. To do it in 2 days you would need 6.5hrs of wind > 20kn on both days, which you are unlikely to get this late in the season.

Anyone who has done Perth to Lancelin care to comment?

your kidding

are you sure he's not on about a massive down winder

I was starting to get interested and have started kiting
I can just do 2 hrs now so another week and we are on.

if we can get a good north wester it might make it a bit more interesting.

so come on guys who's up for it
might be a nice challenge for all you noobs out there

kiting and windsurfing on one downwinder ???????

Yep putting it bluntly i was Fanging it, no swell and a solid 22knots on an 8m, flat chat all the way. very SW facing coast so little actual kite flying. Eyed the horizon and went out to see to adjust my course so that i took a direct route, was so so so glad to see the lighthouse in the distance on the last stretch!
