Hi Guys,
Hope your all having a good xmas!
Now that Xmas is now on its way out, its time to plan NABX.

Last year we booked into hotels but a few locals said that we should have asked them. So here we are, a floor, sofa anything would be amazing!
If you are able to help then we will be most grateful!
just looking into all costs & plans now so we can start booking.
Looking to arrive eve of the 22nd as thats cheapest flights!

If you want to ride at Ivanpah before the NABX event I am pretty sure you should have a permitt .

has a day fee.
C'ya there!

Currently that's the plan for the base.
Fast Freddie might know where we are going as they found an easier way onto the lake bed, so someone else will have to chime in and of course we will
have a specific PRe-Event post thread as we get closer to the event as well as a general email mail out.

Hi dude,
Not the case like Oz!
We shipped buggies last year and left in storage all year.
We are taking 3 demo buggies there, SO if you fail to get buggy there we still will be able to help!
When we have taken buggies they pack down into a kite surf board bag weighing about 23kg. Check with airline on "sports equipment" some give an extra
23/32kg bag for FREE or a smaller charge. Then other bag has kites & clothes! Not too much hassle tbh!
Who would you be flying with?
Cheers
Craig
