Good to see this posted. I signed up since it is so close. It does interfere with the crossing:(

Aloha Mike,

I have been made aware of that the Mille Lacs Crossing coincides with the last 3 days of the course, and have been in contact with Mike Fox, the Crossing's organizer, and we have agreed to collaborate on both events so that to some extent the certification course participants will be able to also participate in the Crossing. (please contact Mike Fox to register for the Crossing)

Looking forward to seeing you on Mille Lacs!

Christopher

Chris, I noted in order to ride at some of the launches near Miami, they require a document of certification. I am not interested in teaching, but would like certification to ride on these restricted beaches. Do you offer anything in this area? Jim N.

Aloha Jim,

I will check to see if we have any current PASA Kiteboarding instructors in MN available to certifiy you as a recreational rider w/ PASA. If not, I can make myself available to certifiy you up on Lake Mille Lacs after holding the instructors course on Saturday or Sunday Sept. 26th & 27th.

I think Aaron Saude has already passed along info on PASA receational membership to you,
however, just so you know the cost of membership is $50.00 annually.

I have also offered Mike Fox four PASA recreational membership certificates to use as prizes, give aways or raffle items for The Crossing so, you never know you might be "A Lucky Winner..."

Let me know if you have any more questions.

Mahalo,

Christopher

Jim,

Jeff W. and I rode Miami Bitch last April without a problem. I would advise you to get certified so you can teach me a thing or 2.

So do tell, what's it like to ride a Miami Bitch?

Jim...there's no doubt in my mind that you're certifiable.
