IKSA starts its first event of 2010 in BELMULLET, Co. Mayo. A place well known for the highest wind stats in Ireland with March being its windiest month. As all wave kiters will tell you, not only is this place wave heaven, but also has some of the best large safe sandy flat kiting spots in Ireland. The IKSA event will be held on the wave beach a few 100 meters down from the UISCE center and on the flat water beach located just across the road to the East. STRAPLESS and UNHOOKED..???... just some of the lingo of WAVE KITING. Those of you who have seen all the news in the magazines and internet must wonder what its all about. Well, IKSA will be running a wave kite clinic on Sat with some of the best wave kiters in Ireland who have been involved in the RhinoWave Event from last year. Info like how to approach a wave, safety tips, boards sizes and leash positioning, how to unhook etc, will be discussed. We also hope to have some kite surfboards to view. This event will also incorporate a SANDY BURGER event for those of you who have had their first few lessons but would like to kite and meet others at the same level. This will be held on the flat water beach, just outside the UISCE center. LSD will also provide an emergency PACKDOWN demo for those a bit rusty on their safety skills. We have an excellent ACCOMMODATION deal with the UISCE CENTER (Fri-Sun EUR90). which is bang right beside the two main kite beaches. Plus if you stay, you can literally walk from the beach into lovely hot showers! The center also offers plenty of non kite activities too check out.....http://uisce.ie Fri, 26 Feb 2010 20:41:04 +0000 http://www.kitesurfing.ie/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=257 Sat, 06 Feb 2010 20:28:39 +0000 http://www.kitesurfing.ie/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=255 Every year we brave the cold to enjoy our sport, but for some the cold is the isolation of depression, lonliness and despair. All your help is greatly appreciated please come down to Dollymount beach on Christmas morning between 9.30-10.00am to have a look at fifteen surfing Santa's. Thanks for all your help and assistance.

David North died when he was pulled into the rocks while launching his kite. David was one of the most enthusiastic riders in the area and he would regularly travel to Sligo and Donegal beaches to get his kitesurfing fix. He was one of the local crew and we will all miss him. Our condolences and that of the local and national kitesurfing community go out to his friends and family. A few of us are going out to Rosnowlagh at 1 o'clock today to leave flowers, etc. The funeral will take place in Milltown Church, Belturbet, Co. Cavan at 11 o'clock on Friday. Directions: From Belturbet, take the Ballyconnel road for about one mile. Turn left for Milltown. The church is in the middle of the village. We will try and analyse the accident at a later stage, but for now our thoughts are with his family.. Ride hard, land soft David.

Come on up to the Mullet for a great weekend of fun and kiting. Alan Kavanagh and Zumosurf will be providing advice, and demo gear for all the new up and coming wave riders. There will be a wave clinic, presentations on how to surf waves, as well as great advice and information on what kiting and waveriding is all about. We'll have experts on hand to show you all the moves, but its also for beginners, so aspects like safety, and kiting in general. There'll be food and drinks on board, as well as a great deal with UISCE, so we won't have to sleep in our tents! Pub and Nightclub afterwards of course. Here's where Belmullet its at... Here is where UISCE facilities are at... Tue, 10 Nov 2009 19:36:08 +0000 http://www.kitesurfing.ie/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=251 Mon, 28 Sep 2009 21:37:18 +0100
