Based at the 2013 SEA Games venue on Ngwe Saung beach, the event saw action from not only the kiteboarders, but windsurfing and Stand up Paddle racers as well. Groups of riders and organizers alike traveled from all over Asia (some even from as far as the US and Europe) to Ngwe Saung for the event. This event was many people’s first look at Myanmar which has just held its first democratic elections. All newcomers were stunned by the beauty of Ngwe Saung and the wave/wind conditions that were perfect for sailing, surfing or kiting. The KTA Kite Kids project was also in action, introducing local youngsters to the sport during the first half of the event. The programe aims to introduce kids to their first experience of power kite flying and teaches them the essential of kite safety. It gives the KTA and its host communities a direct link and fires up the next generation at the grassroots. For Myanmar, kiteboarding is completely new and it was reflected by the unusual lack of ‘local riders’. Topping the kiting for the men was Yo Narapitchit Pudla from Thailand, Asia’s top ranked kite racer. Certainly Myanmar’s first kiting event can be counted as a success, and the blend of watersports the organizers opted to work together seamlessly, making sure there was never a dull moment for the competitors or spectators. Ngwe Saung rounded things off in style with a chilled awards ceremony, which then blended it way into a full blown Halloween party for good measure, well it was Oct. 31st so it would have been rude not to!
