Hi,
We are an easygoing kitesurfing couple (33 & 36 yrs old) looking for 2-4 other kiters who want to share experiences, costs and 4WD rental in order to do a relaxed downwinder in North East Brazil from Cumbuco - Paracuru - Ilha de Guajiro - Prea (Jericoacoara) - and possibly carrying onto Luis Carriea or even Sao Luis.
We are up for it anytime from Mid-August until end of September 2010. It won´t take less than 10 days if alternate days are taken for downwinders and alternate days are for staying and riding locally; i.e 2 nights at 5 destinations.
Kiting experience...able to self rescue, go up wind, go happily downwind for long stretches and kite for 5-6 hours on some days might be neccessary!
The main idea is to rent a 4WD and self drive which is pretty expensive but doubly so when one factors in a driver and their costs which is what we will do only if we absolutely have to. If we self drive then we could all take turns in driving onto the next place, having a session, sorting out the hotel and awaiting the downwinders (Caipirinhas at the ready?!).
If anyone is interested give me a shout.
Cheers,
J & C
