Can I ask how they are getting their equipment down there? Just sucking it up and paying the airline fee? We can get the kites down no problem, but the boards are going to be the tricky part. Airlines are going to charge us $175 each way and renting boards for the time we are down there wouldn't be any cheaper. We are looking into shipping the boards back and forth but I'm not sure it will be any cheaper, and we would need to make sure they get there when they're supposed to. We might even consider buying a used board or two when we get down there if we can find any, and then trying to sell it (or just give it away) once we are done. I'm open to suggestions.
