Adelaide University Boardriders Club

The AU Boardriders Club is not just a club for windsurfers! We are now a club for all ocean-going board-riders, namely surfing and kiteboarding.

If you are keen on Windsurfing we have heaps of gear from advanced wave and slalom boards to the newest and easiest beginner gear. Think windsurfing is about long boards that weigh a tonne? Not any more! With today's new materials and technology, the gear is light, easy to rig and most importantly fun! Beginner sailing days are held in April/March where everyone comes out for a BBQ and beginners can pick up some tips from the more experienced sailors. Gear is free to borrow for members, and if no one else wants to use it, you can keep it at your house!

The club is opening up to surfers this year. If you want to learn, then we can organise lessons for you. For the surfers who are already pretty good, you can come along on our surf camp or compete in the University Games. This is one of the greatest events held each year. Surfing in the comp is a great way to get a ticket to a week of partying.

Want to learn the newest sport around? Kitesurfing has taken off all around the world, and especially in SA since we have awesome conditions for it. Lessons are provided to members for the right price (FREE!) and gear can be bought from Onboard with a special discount. If you can already rip then you can still join and come along to camps and pub nights – great way to meet some new flying mates.

Onboard provides our members with a discount, so you can pick up any of the latest surfing/windsurfing/kitesurfing for a great price. Check out their website at http://www.onboard.com.au .
