MEAK Charity Kitesurf Extreme Event 6 - 8th February 2009
What a week!!! I am still reeling - all I can say is wait till you can see the photos! It was truly an epic event, fantastic wind and a Pro heat that you had to see to believe - we had an amazing time and raising the best ever amount for M.E.A.K so far.
A HUGE thanks to all the competitors who each and every one made the event, and really embraced the spirit of competing for fun, and raising funds for a great cause.
Running total: Kes 171,097 so far.... (£1500)
So here are the results form an entry of 27 competitors- watch this space for the full write up of all of the comp, the riders, the sponsors, the final total for M.E.A.K, the weeks events and... those images!!!
