LOCAL COMMUNITY

WESTWARD HO! AND THE SURROUNDING AREA HAS A FANTASTIC KITE COMMUNITY WITH SOME OF THE NICEST PEOPLE YOU COULD HOPE TO MEET. I CAN ONLY DESCRIBE IT LIKE SURFING WAS 20 YEARS AGO. PIONEERS IN OUR SPORT BUT ALL WITH SIMILAR PERSONALITIES AND LOVE/ENTHUSIASM FOR THE SPORT. THIS PART OF THE SPORT WE SHOULD ALL TRY TO PRESERVE!

IF YOU ARE NEW TO THE SPORT APPROACH ANY OF US OR COME INTO THE SHOP AND TALK TO US, WE WILL HELP YOU AND PASS ON OUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE AREA AND POINT YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION. IF YOU ARE A VISITING KITER YOU WILL FIND THE LOCALS VERY HELPFUL AND COURTEOUS, ALL WE EXPECT IS THE SAME BACK! LETS ALL USE THE SURROUNDING KITING SPOTS TOGETHER WITH SOME LOVE! RESPECT THE NON WATER USERS (DOG WALKERS, HOLIDAY MAKERS, OTHER BEACH USERS) AND THINK ABOUT YOUR SAFETY AND THAT OF OTHERS AROUND YOU.

THE COMMUNITY SECTION OF THE SITE IS SPLIT INTO 6 SECTIONS. NEWS/WEATHER PAGE WHICH IS A BLOG FOR THE AREA THAT ANYONE CAN CONTRIBUTE TO. IF YOU HAVE VISITED ADD YOUR COMMENTS, IF YOUR LOCAL THIS IS YOUR AREA TO GET NOTICED, FIND NEW FRIENDS AND EVEN LOVE (ALAN LOVES EVERYONE!). WE ADD DAILY TIDE, WIND AND HELPFULL ADVISE USING OUR LOCAL KNOWLEDGE.
