Kitemana Kite Chicks Event – getting as many kite chicks on the water as possible! Last year, something special happened. More than 100 kite chicks gathered on the beach in Noordwijk at KSN. What started as an idea grew into a day full of energy, connection and stoke. Hitting the water together, cheering each other on, laughing, learning and most of all enjoying every moment. Our goal? We want to bring together as many enthusiastic kite girls as possible and get them on the water. It's the perfect opportunity to make new kite friends, inspire each other and simply enjoy an amazing day on the water. This day is all about chicks with a passion for kiting. You walk onto the beach, feel the sand between your toes and see girls everywhere who share the same passion. Kites in the air, boards under their arms and a vibe that pulls you in straight away. On the water you push yourself just a little further. Whether you're making your first meters or working on new tricks, during the clinics you learn, challenge yourself and grow together with others. Between sessions you browse the surf market for the coolest surfy items, drop down in the sand with a cold beer and enjoy the tunes of the DJ spinning all day long. And at the end of the day? We all come together again on the beach. Salt in your hair, a big smile on your face and a loaded BBQ to wrap up the day in a relaxed way. And that feeling… that's exactly what we're bringing back this year. But bigger, better and even more fun. On June 13th it's time for the second edition of the Kite Chicks Event. Let's ride, have fun & connect.🌊 💙
