It's on! The Puerto Rico Kite Surfing Federation invites you to the 2011 Puerto Rico Kiteboarding & Paddle Cup bringing together local and international kiteboarding professionals, amateurs and spectators. The kite event will be held April 29th through May 1st, 2011 at the Levitown beach in front of the Comfort Inn Hotel.

The race will start on Sunday, May 1 at 11:00 AM sharp for all categories @ Cafe La Plage in Isla Verde. For information on how to get to Cafe La Plage go to www.15knots.com.

Check out the race course. New for this event is the elimination of age categories in favor of a new gear category which is flat board 11'6 or less. We think that this make more sense as your performance is more influenced by your gear than by your age.
