There is something wrong in the Kiteboard Pro World Tour (KPWT). And kiteboarders should be worried. Known as a very competitive and well managed kiteboarding world tour, the KPWT has been a synonym of success.
But, in the last year, things have changed dramatically. From IKA's beloved competition, KPWT went to the far opposite place to become the black sheep of world kiteboarding competitions.
Kiteboarders competing in KPWT were severely warned about sanctions pending and, lately, two strange episodes. The cancelation of the 2010 KPWT Jamaica and very odd letters being exchanged between KPWT managers and Sean Farley and Kristin Boese seem too much, in a small period of time.
There's little room for more problems in the KPWT movement. The question remains. Is there a place for a general agreement over official kiteboarding competitions?

The tragedy is right around the corner. Unfortunately, fear and death seem to hit mainly the poorest ones. Sumatra, Haiti, Chile and many more countries are challenging harsh times.
Surfers have been showing a lot empathy and strength in order to help locally those who are suffering and in need of a helping hand.
After the earthquake and the tsunami, there are several NGO's working in the field with those who live in a land of paradise waves and winds for all fellow surfers, kitesurfers, windsurfers and bodyboarders.
I am talking about Save The Waves Coalition, Surfrider Foundation, SurfAid International, etc.
Let's donate a small part of our daily quality of life in order to help those who, with a welcoming smile, greet us just before an amazing surfing session in an unexplored sunny spot.
Cheers,
