Story

On Saturday 3rd October, weather permitting a team of Northern Irish kitesurfers are facing their greatest challenge. To cross the Irish Sea. The team will set aside all the weekends in October 2009, so that all the conditions will be right for the riders to launch from Ballywalter in Northern Ireland to KiteSurf 24 miles to Portlogan in Scotland.
