Hey Gabe,
Conditions were good, powder way out, packed powder on the inside, the event went off sweet, comps did not happen, lots of new kiters both days, a lot of slider action, the total vibe was incredible!
This event did so much for the sport, both days there were tons of people looking for lessons.
Matt had a great BBQ, tons of free riding, lots of demos.
Sat had partial sun, and Sunday had snow showers,
Next year will be even bigger!
I think the boys have some video coming and there will be a lot of pics soon.

Many thanks to everyone who came out and made it happen.

SnowDaze is all about sharing the stoke and getting the community to experience what snowkiting is all about. The event went great with 3 outta 3 days wind and great snow. The Race & Competition was canceled since there was only a handful of registered riders, But there was no complaints as everybody was stoked to be there and just wanted to ride!

We will be having a photo conest for the best photo,(courtesy of DRIFT snowkite mag & SBC kiteboard.com) The winner will receive a shot in the mags. So if you came down and have some pictures that you think are worthy, Send me a PM and i will fill you in on the details.

Here is a link to some of the press coverage of the event.

Love from,
the S.O.K.A. crew
