The Go Bandit Big Air Competition
It’s what sets kitesurfing apart from any other sport. No matter how different styles develop and diversify you’d be hard pushed to find a kitesurfer who doesn’t love to boost as big as they can.
The Scottish Windfest with GoBandit Cameras are looking to crown a King, or Queen of Big Air for 2012 and they will walk away with their very own GoBandit Live. The rules are simple – who goes the highest wins so go big or go home.
Master Blaster Race
Speed is not all you need. Sure it helps when you are racing but first you’ve got to hold enough of an upwind angle to get round the marker. Do you then head for the beach as fast as you can to make a sprint for it or scrub off some speed and hold a line to try and make it as close to the finish markers as possible? If you thought racing wasn’t your thing then you haven’t tried the master blaster.
What's more the top finishers in the master blaster will get the right to test themselves against the cream of the windsurfing fleet in the infamous Beach2Beach Challenge. We're not going to mention the Olympics....
Peer Pressure
There is nothing like riding with your friends to make you push yourself to try and land that new trick. Peer Pressure is a competition with a twist as you will ride with and be judged by your contemporaries. You decide whether it is kite low, power, style or just all out effort that takes the title.
The Trick Dip
You put your hand in the bag hoping that you get something that is already in your repertoire and out comes the... can you land it, have you heard of it? The Trick Dip is a new competition format to push riders into trying something new. Dependant on your skill level you stick your hand in a bag a pick a trick. You then have three attempts to land it. If you do then you progress to the next round, pick another trick and the process is repeated until we have only one winner.
