Ladies Day Sundays!!

The Original Ladies Day Members, Heather, Jen, Maria, Patti, Suzie, Adriana, Deja and Coach Clarissa Hempil

Due to the popular demand Action Sports Maui and Kite Club Maui will continue to host Ladies Day Sundays kite session at Action Beach. Ladies day began a few years ago when several of us girls were all at the same riding level. We were all riding, some not quite upwind but all of us girls would get together, kite and be there for support. When the club started we had beach caddies that would walk the beach and catch our kites, we would get free coaching from Dave and and encouragement and support from each other.  Our club has now become a popular get together for the girls on the island, locals and visitors. The Ladies Day program is now for up-wind riders, who would like to work on certain tricks or just get together, talk story and ride with friends.  We also have a variety of 2011 demo kites!  Over the years Action Sports Maui and Kite Club Maui also sponsors free womens kite events with pro rider Clarissa Hempil and World Champion Kristin Boese who has launched KB4Gs, a world wide womens kite tour.

Here is what KiteMovement has to say about Alex...

Not only did F-One rider Alex Caizergues broke the outright all category speed record yesterday in Luderitz at 15:38 with a run at 54.10kts , but he also smashed the 100km/h barrier, which is truly an amazing achievment. This is an historical moment in the sailing world. Alex left his closest competitor almost 2kts behind. Unbelievable. New record is now 54.10kts.  This is the 4th time Alex is breaking a world record.

Record was broken on a new 2011 Bandit IV 8m, using a Kakoo custom board and asymmetrical “RESPONSE” thin fins based on the new UNIBOX system that will equipped all the F-One 2011 twin tips.

Alex Caizergues broke the world speed sailing record : 54.10 knots!

I was checking out Craigs List and came across this ad, I thought it was pretty funny and it kind of shows how the vibe is on Maui. They will need a second nanny to watch the kid while she surfs!
