The NKL - Australian Kiteboarding Competition Circuit

Since kiteboarding began back in the early 2000's, Australia hasn't really had a competitive kiteboarding scene.

Until now.

The National Kiteboarding League, sponsored by Classic Holidays, will be the very first national tour for kiteboarders, with six stops in Australia and one in New Zealand, it's going to be a huge summer for the sport!

The Gold Coast will be hosting two events, the first and the last stops of the tour in November 2015, and February 2016, in Surfers Paradise. Previously hosting the PKRA world tour, for both wave and freestyle disciplines, Surfers Paradise provides a perfect backdrop for competitive kiting in classic Aussie 'beachie' conditions.

Next stop, New Zealand where Christchurch will host Australia's best kiters, and give the Kiwi's a chance to compete on home soil. Incorporating the Cabrinha Big Air comp, Christchurch is a much anticipated stop on the tour for anyone who's kited there.

Back to Australia for the season, the NKL will then be visiting Adelaide, Perth, Sydney and Melbourne for more freestyle, surfing, big air and a whole list of side activities designed to introduce new kiters, inspire future generations and promote safe kiting practices amongst the community. Of course the main event will bring out the best kiteboarders in Australia, all competing for the title of Australia's best, and the prize money on offer thanks to event sponsor Classic Holidays.
