Easyriders is owned and run by Andy Gratwick, who also runs the BKSA. Andy is seasoned at delivering events over the last 15 years, having headed up safety for the Kitesurfing Armadas worldwide and delivered the British Kitesurfing tour events since 2015.
A full round of 12 races, 7 slalom and 5 course racing were delivered with a healthy fleet of over 25 racers.
Alongside the racing Easyriders delivered over 70 free wing tasters to local people and all the leading brands were in attendance bringing their fantastic toys along for people to test and try in the flat breezy waters of shore road.
With plenty of safety cover courstesy of Easyriders and Ballistic Ribs, the cross offshore breeze made it perfect for all levels.
The visiting Wigglesworth brothers nearly dominated the racing with only the old guard in racing with his windsurfing pedigree Guy Cribb managing to compete and get a second place. The cross offshore winds on day one suited the lighter weight riders and with the Wigglesworth brothers on smaller foils they really put on a masterclass in the trickier winds.
