Every day that it is windy we read fellow athletes who are looking for their board after they have lost it on the water. Sometimes we easily count 20 reports of lost kiteboards online. But we can also imagine that wingsurf-boards get lost on the water. That is why we advocate a sticker with contact details on every board. Whether it is a kiteboard, kitefoil board, wingsurf board, wingfoil board, windsurf board or surfboard.
Prevents unnecessary searching
If the board is not found immediately and people are back at home, the internet is scoured to see if the board has been found by chance. Kite surfers also post as many messages as possible on the well-known sites, forums and social media groups in the hope of finding the board again.
Prevent unnecessary action by emergency services
HVery annoying for the athletes in question because boards are pricey. If your contact details are not on it, it will be a lot more difficult to get the board back. Even more annoying are the messages from the lifeguards or bystanders ashore when a board washes up or is found. They are looking for the owner because he may also be in the water. That is why you always call the KNRM immediately on occasion to indicate that you have lost your board. Read the tips from the KNRM.
Our mission: Provide every board with a name label with contact details.
