ye, the actual nationals are from the 11th to the 13th (thursday-sat) then on sunday there is big air and other stuff going on, like trying to set world records and stuff. the few days b4 there is a bus trip with some pro kiters. it will be in st kilda, but depending on wind direction there is also altona, brighton, pt henry and rosebud.
should be a sick event, there are more details on kitemag.com.au
you sign up there, there are different packages so be sure to chek them out.
hope that helps
ewan
and if your in vicco and want to compete remember to qualify at the state titles this weekend
Is there any way I can enter my son in the nationals without paying 150 dollars for a seat on a bus that he doesn't want to go on and breakfast that he wont eat?
It just seems like every year the nationals get more and more expensive, whilst including more and more "packaged" stuff that people don't even care about. I don't know any other sports Nationals that work like this.
ye, im pretty sure there is a package where its just entry to the nationals, its not much money.
Sorry, may have jumped the gun. Is the "supporter package" the entry into the Nationals with out the other stuff? If so why is it called a "supporter package"? isn't it a competitor ticket or something or other?
This is all very confusing and it smells fishy.
Jumpin,
Agree - seems like the descriptions need to be updated and the names of packages are not reflective of what they are.
$30 to enter Nats.
how much is it to enter nationals? who can enter?
we got 2 groms, 2 females and one open men from up here in NQ that wants to enter. whats the procedure?
who are the officials to contact? is aksa involved? if so how?
