Judging information: This year KSA is trialling a new judging system, using a similar to format to the World Surf League, by using multiple judges and dropping high and low scores. We are also aiming to go electronic to make the process more streamlined and fair. As this competition is a wave riding event, you are judged on your wave selection and your execution of manoeuvers on that wave. More specifically, the rules will follow the National Kitesurfing Series Rule book, which can be found on the KA website https://cdn.revolutionise.com.au/site/jhktyuhcfmho4zd9.pdf

Presentations: Presentations will be held after the event this year at the Goolwa Beach Surf Club from 6PM. So stick around to see if you win one of the awesome KSA custome-made trophies.  And grab a prize from the table.

So crew bring your family and friends to soak up the sunshine and the salty sea air and they can watch the kickass kiters slashing waves. To everyone thinking of joining the sport, this is a great time to have a look and see what kiting is all about. The crew are friendly and super helpful, and with the BBQ cranked. For further details stay tuned to the KSA facebook group, KSA website or join the State Wave Titles event on the KSA Facebook page.

Bring on the wind and waves!

See you on the water

Cheers, KSA committee
