About us
Kitesurfing is an extreme sport and so governance, safety and education is a key requirement. We provide insurance for our members, over 80 world class competitive events a year, accreditation of 30 plus schools and set standards to maintain beach access. We work with Australian Sailing to provide competitive pathways for kiters pursuing Olympic ambitions.
Kiteboarding Australia is a federation consisting of five State and Territory Associations. KA is a not-for-profit organisation governed by a voluntary Board with a mix of elected and appointed Directors.
