Moore Park Festival 
Well; a good time was had by all. Saturday produced some nice wind and the buggy crew managed to clock up quite a few miles on the beach. I spent Saturday making Tyvec paper kites with the local kids. The look on thier faces when a kite made and decorated by them actually flies was great.
Sunday was another good day with a little less wind. Moore park is a great place to visit and the locals extremely friendly.
2005 FORCE Kites
The New Force gear looks great. With improvements to thier kites and additions to thier board range it should be a good season for the Aussie product. No prices yet but stay tuned……………(you know they will be good)

A certain local flyer, who will remain anonymous has won the SS Commodore from the QLD Trading Post*. All I can say is, lucky bugger!!!
*The QLD Trading Post is a weekly tabloid of things for sale, mostly by private owners – think ebay without the auction, and with paper.

Seaspecs
Most people arent aware that their greatest risk of injury whilst kitesurfing is to their eyes.
All those hours sailing with the sun just behind their kite, combined with glare off the water. Excessive UV exposure can lead to blindness later in life.
Blindness in later life makes it very difficult to see where your kite is going and can lead to all manner of accidents. This then, is the reason you should be wearing ‘Seaspecs’, made for the industry by people who can see.
Benefits of Seaspecs include :
> Polarized polycarbonate lenses reduce glare and fatigue
> Stops water spraying in your eyes
> Adjustable retaining strap
> They float
Get yours today, wear them while watching television, or, what about using them the next time you go kitesurfing?
BrisKites cares about your health.
