RECAP: 3 days of great wind and fun at the Pismo Kitexpo

April 13, 2015

Hosted every year by The Kiteboarder, this PISMO Kitexpo is held every year and is a fund raiser for our friend Kinsley ThomasWong, a kiteboarder who was gravely injured in 2010. This year, a solid 20+mph wind was showing up at about 12 every single day and a lot of kiteboarders from all over the country had the chance to try out tons of gear from the leading brands. At the F-One booth, the day started at 8am with the SUP demo and finished late with either campground parties or fund raising dinner for Kinsley. We were crazy busy and the gear rarely touched the sand ! everybody was enjoying the new Bandit kite, the Mitu and Signature surfboards + Fish, the entire Twin Tip lineup (Trax, Acid, Unik), the MANERA EXO Harnesses. Let's not forget the SUP boards we did tons of SUP in the morning, we had the wave series (madeiro 8'3-8'5-8'8) and also Anakao 9'1 (I must say that i had a GREAT time on this new Anakao 9'1, right before the crowd started to show up, it's a new shape for 2015 and it's an awesome board), plus some Manawa baords as well. Thank you to the F-One crew for helping out Bruce - Christian - Tyler - Jesse - Vincent - Frank
