Prob a bit far for me

But i think 'fitting in'  with other complementry events is really sound.

I noticed in the blurb  that there is 'luxury use of the showers'   im wondering ... but suspect my hopes would be dashed

Sometime towards the end of the year, the 'artificial surf reef' ( serious £750000 worth!) should be completed  in bournemouth and get a proper opening   that should be worth a turn out too


And these are just the sort of peeps to go for bocks.  If wind too strong/too lite  no surf ..hat do they do? Get the sk8 board out and wizz around the car park very often. Just needs 1 person in a groupto get the bug and wholenew groups will form

Not too late ? Even if they just add something about us coming down one day for a meet  :thumbs:
We could bock around the clock tower before and promote them  :)
Win-Win  :banana:

yes

I do know the people who run the extreme centre at Skeg (Invited to sit on the board but declined)

Also involved with the east Lindsey sports team so could develop this if you want

If you want a meet with access to the extreme sports centre should be able to make that happen providing enough support.

really would be cool to make a day of it in one way or another, will talk to my contacts if you want me to

Never been inside just looked in the window !
I was just thinking that a meet at the same time would mean that more people would be likely to have a look at them and may buy so  :)
And we could watch the kites  :thumbs:
