Re: Kiteracing Oceanic Championships at Leighton Beach Dec 1
Fantastic Location for an all round kite event - it has everything any kiter could ever want in an event.
The organizers this year have gone over and above to ensure it is one to remember.
Well done to all those who have made it possible. Good luck to all the competitors.
