Ciao!
I'll be in los roques next may/june for about 9 days.
I'll fly from NY to Caracas by Caribbean airlines...
airlines told me that they can' t lade the board, because ATR72 is too small!!! :o
nobody knows if it's true??
so...
I try to find someone who rents board in los roques, but I only found an "agency" that ask me.... 80 us $ for a day!!
:cry:
do you know any school with most reasonable prices??!?
grazie Francesca

We had no Problem to bring all our gear to LR. And all the other Kiters we met had all their own gear with them. I think officially they can only bring so much lagguage on the planes, but the worse that can happen is that our bag will be on the next flight.
I doubt that youll find a place that rents out stuff, out there...

Its a great place, enjoy your trip....

ciao!!
I have problems from NY to Caracas and not from Caracas to Los Roques...
:evil:
Caribbean airlines said me that the board is too much longer for ATR 72 :angryfire:
I don't know if it's true! now I wrote to them to explain that kiteboard is smaller than a snowboard ...
anyway...
I found playlosroques.. but they are too much expensive for me... they want 80 us $ for a day!!!
and 640 us $ for 8 days!!!
anyone else???
thanks
