11th Annual Pismo Beach KiteXpo April 11 14, 2013, Pismo Beach, California
Brought to you by The Kiteboarder Magazine and XtremeBigAir.com
After two days of checking out the latest gear on the beach, the wind finally arrived in Pismo Beach and patient participants were rewarded with a long late day kiteboarding session in ideal demo conditions.
Today started out with another amazing raffle loaded with amazing prizes.
Some lucky kiteboarders walked away with a brand new kite or board and a majority of riders in attendance walked away with at least some great swag that had been donated by the vendors.
The wind was forecasted to show up today and it finally did at about 2:30 pm. As soon as the whitecaps hit the beach riders flooded the water on 10-12m kites.
The wind stayed on until the end of the day, providing a great end to the 2013 Kite Expo with perfect riding conditions.
Thanks to all the riders who came out to check out the latest gear and help raise money for the Kinsley ThomasWong donation fund! See you in 2014!
