Getting stoked, 3 days to go..

This year you have more of a chance to win!!! Ben Winding will not be there this year doing his thing. It will be strange, as Ben has been going to robe for about the last 6 years. He has spent more hours on the water there, then all competitors put together in past years.. He has party at the pub, (many times under age) and won the event many times over..

But this year, good for him, he travels up north to the Kiteboarding nationals, best of luck Benny, we will miss you, but you know there is always next year, and you will be back on road trips with us real soon.

Poonie, you poor bugger. Every once in a while someone tempts fate and asks such a question. Geoff once did and soon found himself in the fetal position.

This weekend, your mind will be enlightened. Pack a wheelchair, you may need it.

Sophie packed them away with a style and finesse like no other last time......the next morning she looked a little worse for wear though.

Hey new guys, 3rd is on your way back to Adeliade on the Kingston road.. So leaving the town ship of Robe, turn left on the Kingston Road, about 5km from town, on a slight bend, is a dirt road on your left. The sign says Long Beach. This is the road to the comp site.. There isnt much parking there, so if you have a 4WD its better to drive from 1st ramp about 4kms on the beach to comp site..

You will not the Comp site, heaps of Flags, big RED BULL tents, and tunes pumping..

I will try and put some stuff on the main road turn off as well. its should be up by 10am on the friday..

Safe trips down crew

2 days to go!! Yippy yeah...

Dont forget if you are staying in a rental house, you need to take bedding stuff, eg pillow and sleeping bags... Most houses have nothing on the beds...

And dont forget to pack your winter woolies, its going to be cold at night!!!
