It is a trade show so admission is limited to folks in the business or guests with passes. It sounds like quite a few kite businesses are coming this year unlike in the last couple.

When and where is the beach demo this year?

hi Rick,
There is a dealer/industry demo in Clearwater Sept 17-18 and most mfgs are sticking around to do East Coast Demos afterward. The Kiteboarder will be interviewing Surf Expo vendors on the new gear on Sept 14 and 15, and either streaming the video or posting video that evening -- it all depends on the tech we can work at when we're at the show.

I am calling mfgs this week so I will ask them about public demos and compile a list as I go:-)

Thanks Marina. It makes sense that they have a backup plan for east coast demos. The wind has been light on both coasts lately though. Hope your video content goes up. See you at the show!

It's that time of year again and Surf Expo is coming up fast the weekend of September 12, 2008. Sounds like a lot of brands are going to be there this year. http://www.surfexpo.com/

It is my understanding that the demo this year will be on Monday at Cocoa Beach Hilton. (rooms @ 80.00/night) I also heard that some manufacturers are not coming to this demo day as it is not an AWSI sactioned event.
Any news?

There is a Freak Dog Kites demo in Tampa Bay the following weekend, with a strapless clinic for local riders with the legendary Top Hat. more info on TBKA.org

Looking forward to seeing everyone at the Expo;)
