Default XRated Xtreme Race- Jupiter to Ft Laud. IS HISTORY!- Results



It had never been done before, 49 racers blasting a distance of 60 miles down the Southeast coast of Florida. Thanks to race organizer Neil Hutchinson of XRATED KITEBOARDING and Tiki Beach, volunteers, sponsors and the RIDERS it is now history! For now a taste of the action and results soon to be followed with lots of experiences and photos from this great event.

On Saturday, December 9, 2006 at around 9:30 am the armada of racers hurled off down the coast in northeast winds around 24 kts. gusting to 28 kts. Seas were initially about 5 to perhaps 9 ft. in spots easing for the most part as the riders headed south.


Looking up the coast from Lake Worth Inlet over a sea of kitesurfers, 10 miles south of the start.

The results follow along with race times. If riders were blocked in their attempt to complete the run, Neil provided some insight into what they were up against.

The leaders Andy Hurdman and Demion Thomas
ripping down the coast just north of Hillsboro Inlet.


Kent of Adventuresports.com shredding along on his custom DC directional board to come in fourth.


Jeremy of Jupiter Kiteboarding, soon to land fifth in succession.


Landing, often enough totally exhausted! What a run.
