Here they are, the very best of the amateur photos this year that show off not only the northwest's core riders, but also its natural beauty. "Kitescape" is just an easy way to describe it. Very Happy

I chose the Tonya's Sauvies photo over this one, but it wasn't an easy choice. This one definitely deserves to be on this page, so I thought I'd post it down here. Thanks for all your contributions this year Tonya!

That's awesome. When was that taken? It's crazy to see that many kites at the coast. The most I've seen was a group of 7, including myself!

Hey Kataku2k3,

Tonski snapped the above shot on 7.17.05 from the Clatsop Spit South Jetty. Slingshot was holding their annual employee get-together/party and running van shuttles for down-winders. We counted over 40 kites between the Jetty and Sunset Beach at one time (~85% were Slingshot).

PKH and I got on the water shortly after, lit up on 7m & 9m respectively! Emery was testing a 9m Crossbow on a strapless short board... Shocked

Can’t wait for Summer ‘06 15mile down-winders with Barfly to the Summerhouse Inn... Thumb's Up

Better book your accomodations early so your don't miss out... Wink ~Onad
