Kiteboarding is a sport that is quickly becoming very popular in Sauble Beach, a destination known as one of the world’s best. The shallow waters and high winds combine to create excellent conditions for riders enabling them to perform tricks and maneuvers in the air. Local kiteboarding Instructor Daniel Medysky, who runs the KiteRider school and whose son Sam is Canada’s leading International Pro rider, has been instrumental in putting together the Kiteboarding competition in conjunction with the Sauble Beach Festival and Events office.

Ontario Summer Splash Stand-up Paddleboard races will culminate with the series finals held on Sept. 17th and 18th. The best riders in Ontario will square off for the championship and showcase their amazing talents in this exciting sport.

KiteJam is a free family event, continuing Sauble Beach’s string of free events for the 24 Weeks of Summer.
