The first Kitmasters Race had 2 parts to it.

Border Cross held in 40 - 50 mph winds. Truely one insane competition
Downwinder: Gandy to the Skyway, this was a great run for all who entered.

No reason why we can't put together another 2 part Kite Masters Race.

Cool
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

Yeah I rode that bordercross ... in the gulf gusting between 40-50. I was on a 9m C kite. Without bayflite holding me down and burrying my legs I couldn't even hold down the kite. It was sick.

Yeah I remember that day. A lot of people took off and never made it around the first buoy. It took Brian Eagle an hour to set 1 buoy. That was a sick Border Cross.
