Kiteboarding South Australia

2025/2026 KSA State Wave Titles held today in great conditions off Goolwa Surf Life Saving Club beach. It's been a big year with the algae bloom affecting our event and it was great to be able to run it again. Sun was out, swell was pumping, the wind was howling and the humpback whale got the memo to stay away from the comp zone 😅Thanks to everyone who came down and participated!

Big thanks to Darren Kite and Leighton Clark The Ding King for giving up your sunday and sitting in the tower watching the action unfold

Alexandrina Council for providing support and allowing us to run the event on the beach.

Goolwa Surf Life Saving Club for providing water coverage. Without these guys we wouldn't be able to hold this event.

Quobba Fins for providing the early bird prize Rhys Higham taking out the prize even tho his on the otherside of the world!

Thanks to all the photographer's that made an effort to come out. We look forward to seeing your photos soon ❤️

State Wave Titles update!

Hola! Swell is up, wind will be howling but unfortunately we are having to postpone the event once again 🤯. This is due to not being able to have a rescue craft available. We work closely with the local surf clubs but unfortunately this weekend there is no IRB or ski available. We value our competitors safety as priority. We hope everyone understands the dilemma and look forward to holding the event in the future!!

Hope everyone gets out in the next couple days for a shred!!

KSA committee

Hey kite frothers!!

Looks like we have a pretty solid forecast to run this year's State Wave Titles down south at Goolwa with a potential to run from rose st at Middleton. We have moved the comp up to standby and await for an announcement tomorrow. 20kts SW wind with a solid swell should make it for a fun morning.
