from Redbull
Thanks for your email and interest in Red Bull Lighthouse to Leighton.
The applicants will be notified on the 29th November 2010 if their application is successful.
We wish you lots of energy!
Cheers!
As a Redbull rider I got told a week ago so pretty sure everyone else will find out soon. I'm told that most places will go to WA and SA riders. Good luck, fingers crossed.
Mmmm..... so has any one else been notified or is martynbone going to have a lonely crossing.
Tightlines i have spoken to a few of the lucky kiters in the last two days who have been out on the water training...............however the selection was made it wouldn't of been easy or in my case maybe it was 
just got my email saying:
Due to the small field of only 50 competitors, selected from nearly 200 applications, we are unfortunately unable to offer you a start in this year's Red Bull Lighthouse to Leighton kite race.
:(
Hi there,
Due to the small field of only 50 competitors, selected from nearly 200 applications, we are unfortunately unable to offer you a start in this year's Red Bull Lighthouse to Leighton kite race.
If for any reason an applicant from our first round selection is unable to compete, there will be the opportunity for second round offers. We will be sure to contact you if we are able to offer you a spot.
We thank you for your interest this year and we look forward to seeing you down on Leighton Beach to the 11th December to join in the festivities at the finish.
Sincerely,
The Red Bull Lighthouse to Leighton Team
might get into trouble for asking..
so who's going to do it anyway?
get the boat over and kite back behind/in front of the group?
Feel a little awkward about posting this but, Hell yeah, got a spot...
They say that you need to sort your own transport to Rotto...Can you even buy a one way ticket ;)
Wonder about equipment (Pumps etc) that need to be brought back?
Bring on 11th Dec
YEeeee harrrr go mine....

You will be required to wear a PFD for L2L. Plain & simple. There are some stringent safety/risk mgmt issues we have had to ensure for this event which include PFDs and the provision of a significant number of safety boats. Safety boats will be on hand as the fleet kites back to Leighton as an additional safety measure.
Quite simply, PFDs are non-negotiable. We acknowledge that it may not be everyone's preference but we want to make sure this event runs smoothly and safely so that the event can be run again, bigger and better in the future.
WAKSA.
Yeees !! Got mine
