You really (really) need to specify what kind of competition. Different types have different governing bodies. Buggy? Landboard? Water? Etc. Etc.
Etc.

You tell somebody they ride like they wear a pink skirt!
Next time they see you, the competition is on! :evil:
The only semi formal races I know of are NAPKRA races. It is the buggy racing org. . If you don't have a chapter near you then you may want to work on
starting one up.
Nothing even semi formal for ATB that I know of. Snowkite events usually have races open to all but I don't think they areexactly formal titles?
On the water is another story. Not sure about how it works in your area.
Kites: 2.5m Profoil , Quadrifoil XL kitesurfer, NPW 5 Danger.
Flexifoil: 1.7m Sting, 4.9m Blade 3, 9m Blade 2.
Flysurfer : 19m Speed 2 SA, 7m Pulse
Peter Lynn :18m Phantom, 15m Synergy, 10m Synergy, 1200 Farc, 460 Sarc, 130 Tarc, 5m Peel, 4.2m , 6.4, 8.5 C-Quads, 3.5 LS2 single skin.

It sounds like there's not many. I was thinking about any type of competition on any medium, but I guess our sport is just not popular enough yet!

NAPKRA is the closest thing we have .
This is why I think it's important for us to join it even if we need to start a chapter for the area. Even if you don't get any races off.
While NAPKRA is for buggy I know they are a great bunch that would be open to having something like ATB competitions be part of the umbrella ? The
trick is to get organized in the 1st place.
Kites: 2.5m Profoil , Quadrifoil XL kitesurfer, NPW 5 Danger.
Flexifoil: 1.7m Sting, 4.9m Blade 3, 9m Blade 2.
Flysurfer : 19m Speed 2 SA, 7m Pulse
Peter Lynn :18m Phantom, 15m Synergy, 10m Synergy, 1200 Farc, 460 Sarc, 130 Tarc, 5m Peel, 4.2m , 6.4, 8.5 C-Quads, 3.5 LS2 single skin.
Rides: Flexi / P.L. Frankin'Buggy , Shaped + straight skiis, sand skis, Coyote blades. Core 95 ATB. RKB R2 ATB .
