Racing & Long Distance Camp with Pro Racer Sean Farley
December 8 – 11, 2011
Isla Blanca, Cancun, Mexico

Join us for the ultimate kiteboarding adventure of your lifetime. Come learn with Pro Racer Sean Farley (Mex/North) the fundamental techniques to get your racing going, and be part of the crowd that is having the most fun out on the water with state of the art racing gear.

Sean will be sharing his racing & long distance expertise, which has put him up on the podium time and again. He will coach you on how to perfect your technique, and instruct you on how to best perform with racing & long distance gear.

Spaces are limited so Sean can focus very closely on each of the participant’s riding, keep a close eye on your performance and give you a personalized system to improve and make the most out of your racing & long distance riding.

And the cherry on the cake… we will be having a series of races in which the participating kiters will have a real chance to showcase their riding and get a taste of what real racing is about…. Plus a Full Moon racing session! Every kiter has what it takes…he/she just needs proper instruction, and no one better than a Pro Racer to provide it.

New North Racing Boards will be provided during the course. You will be able to test ride these ‘hotties’ and chances are you’ll want one of your own. Once you’ve ridden these babies you will not go back to a twin tip, instead you’ll be making the best out of those low wind days…even if it’s not blowing…you’ll be going!

The workshop will take place in Cancun Area , with features great kiting facilities and outstanding wind conditions.

Who is behind this Camp?
Our world was rocked back in 2000 when we got hooked on kiteboarding and were among the first kiters in Tulum, exploring all the secret spots and kiting all along the area’s unspoiled coast. Driven by the sport we later founded a production company and produced kiteaboarding feature articles for Mexico’s top sports & travel magazines. In 2008 we got into sports events production and teamed up with the PKRA to organize an official world tour stop in Mexico, and we’ve been at it ever since, going for our third edition in 2012.
