Kite Scoop Forum

yo scoop. We have submitted the paperwork to form the Collegiate Kiteboarding Association as a non-profit 501-c. Our first goal is to talk to IKO, PASA and Sports Insurance Hawaii about getting insurance. We want to make it possible for members (college sports clubs) of the CKA to host events and competitions. We will raise the money my charging members fees, running fundraising and sponsorships. The target for the upcoming school year is to host an East and West coast Regional and US final. This is new territory for us and it's our main purpose so we may need some guidance here.

With the announcement that kiteboarding has been accepted into the Olympics, I would also like to pursue a dream of offering a kiteboarding scholarship to a student to go to a college with a kiteboarding club. I need to talk to people who are familiar with what this process would involve, from securing the funding to logistics with the universities.

Of course racing is shit and we will 100% push the wakestyle/strapless thing. I welcome any feedback or advice from this forum. Alternatively you can reach me on kiwi@fsukiteboarding.com

Sounds good I'm in so you have a connection in Charleston, SC at CofC if u need anything. Matt Sexton started it so he could help im sure..I also would do all disciplines. Race can be held in like 5 kts and if its done boarder cross it is fun. It could aslo help people get scholarships if u say we help train people for olympics or some bullshit like that..
