The Windy Devil crew is going to be hanging at Camp Marky Mark from January 16th to the 25th. For those of you that don’t know Mark is a legend down there so this is the place to be for this kiting event.
We have people flying into La Paz and Cabo so let us know and we can hook up and share rides to La Ventana.
Also this will be a great chance to see why the Rise is the kite to have for all styles of kitesurfing because you can fly it back to back with other brands.
Below are details I took off the Kiteboaders site.
