(The Wave National have been postponed - The Margaret River Classic will go ahead in lieu of the Nationals)

Kiteboarding Australia in conjunction with Kiteboarding Western Australia is excited to be hosting the Margaret River Quobba Classic in lieu of the planned Wave Nationals!

The event remains part of the Cabrinha National Wave Series. The contest will see some fantastic wave riding at the iconic Main Break, Margaret River. The 4-day event will bring together the community from across Australia to battle it out for the Australian Titles. 

Margaret River has many great local accommodation & food locations. In the lead up to the event Kiteboarding Australia will announce a program for evening activities in the town to ensure we will have as much fun off the water as on the water.

In the event of no-wind laydays, there is a magnitude of other activities to be done including world class surfing, wineries & touring the amazing sights.
