We have had a fun time here in Boston with the competition, I hope WOO makes this a yearly thing......Sadly we have only had a few good wind days, but made the most of them.
Thanks, glad to hear!

Yes, the wind has been remarkably bad so far but still we saw a lot of action and got to discover new people from different spots.

Let's hope for good winds for the next 2 1/2 weeks, so we can all get some serious sessions in 8)

For all the freeriders out there...there is a fun discipline for you!

Have you ever tried to draw a heart with GPS? - Best/most creative entries will win $1'000, $500, $250 :naughty:

All you need to do is use your phone or apple watch or garmin and record a session with WOO, using #wooworlds and #love when uploading

Here are some fun ones we have received thus far:

WOO is for everyone...

Amazing to be able to gather as a team and kite towards a global goal...

STOKE LEVEL is 9000+++

...more story to come on the TEAM DISTANCE portion of the contest.

Glad you're enjoying it! It was (and still is) a lot of work to organize and run but we're overwhelmed by all the positive feedback we've received so totally worth it! :jump:

There are so many great facets to this competition, one of them being the team disciplines you mentioned.

Here is a fun clip of Jason van der Spuy and Brett Mason (new No. 1 in Highest Jump) talking about what they personally enjoy about this competition (and of course about their huuuge boosting session) :thumb:
