well, this is our second week here in the World Mecca of Kiteboarding!
20 knots everyday from 11 am untill 7 pm, this is mainly the reason, why I haven´t been updating the Cabarete report as frequent as I wanted to... we have been kiting, setting up the school, getting settled, meeting with old friends, keeping up with all what is going up here in the Cabarete scenary! we have been busy also taking care of the Adkins, DAvid, Jennifer, Charlotte and Adi!
They started lessons at our Xpu HA center last winter season and they decided to join us in this Cabarete Experience! lucky for them and for all of those who are coming to join the Morph Team! what an experence!
The Velocity Games, the city's kiteboarding, skateboarding and windsurfing competition, is changing its name just two months after a new sports marketing firm acquired rights to the event.
Jessica Davila-Burnett, president of Epic Sports and Entertainment LP, announced the event will be renamed the U.S. Wind & Water Open beginning with the 2007 competition on May 11-13.
The name change is a further evolution of an event that started in 1987 as a windsurfing competition. It has been known as the Velocity Games since 2003, reflecting the additional sports events and providing an umbrella name for the U.S. Wind and Water Open, the 20th annual Cheniere Energy U.S. Windsurfing Regatta, the AT&T Kiteboarding Open, The Port of Corpus Christi & F-2 Speed Challenge, and the Texas Skate Jam.
Davila-Burnett said the new name reflects Epic Sports and Entertainment's goal of placing emphasis on the sports and national title championships at stake.
