Silloth Kite Festival

We are planning to do a downwinder if the conditions allow from Allonby to Silloth for the Silloth Kite and Water Sports festival.

We will be taking the Gin Tent and have a pitch at the festival. Should be fun!

I've changed to Video so the newly edited Promo works again.

I've also got a quiver of Gin Zulu II Kites on demo from UKAirsports. Sweet kite - not had a great deal of testing time as the wind has been fairly poor lately but what riding we've done the concensous is that they are a great product.

Its been a while

It's been a while since the last update, but we are still here and still looking to complete the crossing this year. Our training hasn't been as good as last year as the wind just hasn't been consistent. We had an excellent winter though with substantial distance covering in the Lake District and Pennines.

We have decided on 2 slots for the attempt 14th - 28th July and 6th -22nd August conditions and boat support allowing.

We are also planning the Haggis Run again from Allonby to Southerness and back but the weather has conspired against us on the last couple of weekends we had it planned. Watch this space.

Many thanks to all the sponsors - we will get this done - hopefully it will be this year!!
