The High Five Short Lines Competition is built on pure community energy and this year, you can help take it to the next level.
Shortlines kitesurfing is fast, technical, risky, and seriously impressive. The riders putting it all on the line deserve prize money that reflects the level of commitment, progression, and stoke they bring to the water. That’s where you come in.
We’ve launched a Buy Me a Coffee page so the global kite community can directly support the prize purse. Every euro goes straight to the riders, nothing else.
To make things even sweeter, the legends at Lieuwe have stepped up and sponsored a board for the community raffle. For every €10 donated, you’ll automatically get one entry into the draw to win a brand new Lieuwe board. Donate more, get more entries. Anything under €10 still gets entered into a separate raffle for Lieuwe merch and products.
To enter, complete this online entry form.
In this form, you will be asked to upload a video link (URL to Instagram or YouTube) of your short lines riding.
The video does not have to be specifically made for the competition, but a compilation of clips would be best to better showcase your skills.
Riders will be announced on Saturday 14 December.
