At the Beginning of Sept I got an Invite by my sponsor Peter Lynn Kiteboarding to attend the Kiteboarding World tour stop in Fehmarn (as a Spectator / Stand staff of course 🙂 )

Having never been to the German event, I looked forward to the trip which took me via Holand.

The Event was very well organised but sadly lacked decent conditions.

With Peter Lynn, great developments were made (watch some upcoming announcements) which I am super excited about.

Here are could of snaps from the trip.

All the best to the world kiteboarding league on their quest to become the number 1 tour. Sadly the world of competitive kiteboarding is marred by political wrangles and people pulling in different directions. This particular tour claims to be for the riders which in essence is the only way to go (at least for the freestylers). For the sport as a whole, it’s way too complicated to discuss in a post

It was great to connect with the Peter Lynn team and plan the next chapter … and by the way, good food! 😉

So I landed in San Teodoro , Sardinia… running.

Months ago, Emerico from Wetdreams surf shop in San Teodoro asked me if I would help him put together this new event. He needed someone who could do a whole lot of stuff and had experience in running events that deal with the wind and the sea.
Having some experience in that department with the Cannon Rocks Kiteboarding Classic, I jumped onboard this crazy adventure.

And so EXTREME FUN GAMES was born.
That also means I will be in Sardinia until the end of September dealing with all the aspects that an event of this nature involves.

Bureaucracy held us back in our search for sponsors (Yes, Italy is a little more complicated than South Africa!), but it’s full steam ahead now!

We have stands available for brands to come and show off their equipment (No Selling) and a few other “No Wind” activities that we are planning for the 4 days.

The venue is the incredible beach of “La Cinta”. We expect a large influx of people in the water and on the beach. Entertainment for the evening is also planned for participants and public.

The Locals are super friendly and I get to strum my guitar in the evenings too…

Of course the prep work involves getting images of some action and I take that opportunity to get into the water myself 🙂

Here are some pics of the pre event madness that has started.

Also hoping to slip away and go and explore some lesser known spots in this beautiful place.
