2011 Best Superfly Open @ Strawberry Reservoir Feb. 18-21

Postby superflyopen » Thu Feb 03, 2011 1:17 pm

Best Kiteboarding is hosting the 4th annual 2011 SuperFly Open. This spectacular and unique snowkite festival is scheduled for February 18-21st, 2011. The event will take place at Strawberry Reservoir and the surrounding areas around Park City, UT. These areas are some of the best kept secrets for the best snowkiting in the world. Jacob Buzianis our top international snowkite team rider has been coming to this area since the beginning of snowkiting and it has been his playground to train. Now, it has become a popular snowkiting destination because of the open areas to snowkite and nearby ski resorts. Park City, The Canyons, and Deer Valley ski resorts are just minutes away.

The SuperFly Open will have something for everyone! Introductory kite clinics, demos, and the opportunity to watch some of the best snowkiters in the world showcase their talent. Launch off snow features prepared with the help of Jacob Buzianis and the snow grooming team. Slide across rails and boxes generously provided by event sponsors. Compete in or watch any of the five competition categories; Freestyle, Wookie's checkpoint challenge, Snowkite Cross, Big Mountain Race and Freeride.

The SuperFly Open is a sanctioned stop on the NAST Snow Kite Tour in the United States and dubbed as an annual “must hit” snow event for kiters worldwide!

Multi-evening festivities include "Wookies hot tub, snorkle & swim" @ the Zermatt Resort (Friday night, February 18th), "Wookie's Wild Round-up" bar crawl to Park City, UT (we will all get on one big school bus to Park City) (Saturday night, February 19th) , Awards Ceremony/Party @ The Zermatt Resort (Sunday night, February 20th), hot springs swimming, dining, dancing, awards, and multimedia presentations from some of the greatest athletes in the sport.

Our event will include:

Intro Clinics
There will be introductory clinics for those who would like to see first-hand why snowkiting is so addicting. Once you learn the basics of flying a kite and feel the power of the trainer kite, you’ll be hooked.

Free Ride Sessions
Free ride the terrain, sliders, and snow features as you wish.

Kite Races
Participate or just watch snowkiters race against each other around a predetermined course. Racers will compete in heats and will compete for top honors in a final round. Race categories are Men’s Open Ski, Men’s Open Snowboard, Women’s Open Ski, and Women’s Open Snowboard, Wookie's Checkpoint Challenge.

Freestyle Comp
The freestyle competition will be an open event. Riders will be judged on a number criteria set forth before the start of the competition. Kickers and Sliders will be included for riders to showcase their skills. Three riders in each category, Men’s Open and Women’s Open, will progress to the final round.

Big Air Expo
The Big Air Expo is an event for those that just want to go big! Each year kiters are spending more time in the air and this expo will show how high, how long, and how many tricks can be executed in one flight.

Is there a way to preregister for the racing? I didn't see anything about that on the event registration link (only options seemed to be (womens ski & snowboard, kite intro clinic, and volunteering).

If we preregister, do we still need to check in before 10 on Saturday, or can we come later?

Thanks
-Brad
