I know that Matt and Triton hosted more than one event for their collegiate competition. He's probably a good resource to help with planning of multiple events.
I won't be doing the downwinder but i will be trying to get helicopters to cover it on the news because that was so cool last year to see everyone from a birds eye view.
steve-0 you self rescuing this year if you run into complications?
Downwinder and Speed Trials should make the majority of this kiting community satisfied
