Welcome to the new SWATK website
Welcome to SWATK! The South and West Association of Traction Kiting (SWATK), now in its sixth year, was originally formed by a small group of like-minded kiting enthusiasts to promote the sport of Power Kiting. SWATK is now probably the largest and certainly the most active Power Kite Club in the UK. The focus of the club is to ensure that you get the most out of your power kiting. The club achieves this in three main ways: • By organising a calendar full of club events – from club fly-ins to the popular SWATK entry-level race series; from days on the beach to weekends in France – all events are open to all club members. • By providing entry level and intermediate training free of charge to all members, ensuring club members are safe, responsible fliers and that every member has the chance to develop their potential in the sport. • By providing a point of contact for discussions regarding power kiting and liaising with representatives at local and national government level – ensuring the views of experienced, dedicated and respected power kiters are heard in any debate affecting the sport.   |

Ho! November write up
Spyke writes "
 |
Another cracking trip to the Ho! began for a few of us on the Friday. The Hereford boys began their road trip early, picking up the handsome Spyke along the way. With the sun shining, the beach hard and flat and the wind blowing onshore about 25mph Bozz and Tereasa arrived upping the SWATK numbers to 6!
The tide was out and we all had hours of flying until it began to get
dark and the water came in. Mark especially was enjoying himself on his
Sabre nailing some nice 360 tailgrabs for the first time.
That night
after some good food, Rich decided to show us some skills on his
skateboard and then demolished everyone at air hockey at the amusements. |

Summer Madness – SWATK at Westward Ho!
Fluffy-lou writes "
 |
One of the largest gatherings for some time, SWATK and friends met in mid-August for a weekend of fun, kiting and socialising at Westward Ho!
SWATK trips to Westward Ho! are always well supported, and summer allowed the enjoyment of superb facilities and a warm welcome of Steart Farm Campsite.
It was truly a gathering of SWATK members from far and wide, including a very welcome contingent from Plymouth Kite Club.

SWATK Ozone Demo Weekend – sponsored by Atmosphere Kites
Fluffy-lou writes "To link in with the re-arranged SWATK race day on Sunday,
Atmosphere Kites kindly arranged an Ozone Demo Weekend to enable members to be
able to play on the new range of Ozone kites, and to have a sneak preview of
the long awaited Ozone Stealth buggy.
As with everything, the weather was the one thing that
couldn’t be organised, so when Saturday dawned with torrential rain and no
wind, everyone feared the worst. However, as our very own Spyke reports, the
day got better and better… "

Big, Bad French Trip – Part 1. 27-29 April 2007
Fluffy-lou writes "
 |
The packing of cars finally complete, t-shirts printed and delivered,
Andy A’s predictions of doom ignored, a horribly early awakening
survived....
Finally a bleary-eyed mixture of experienced hands and French
trip virgins gathered at the old Hoverport awaiting the ferry.
That is
when those who hadn’t read their emails from Speed Ferries had been
re-directed back to the Hoverport from the main docks!
