According to Daniël Bakker, spokesperson for the recreation board, the water directly behind the row of posts is intended as a 'surf zone' and should also be used exclusively for this purpose.
In our opinion, it is perilous to separate a kitesurfing lesson area for kite surfers with such a row of posts. We also believe that it hardly takes any effort to achieve the same goal by means of a safer alternative. You don't even have to be creative and help is offered.
Too bad the beach manager has gone his own way. Let's assume that the NKV will now continue to discuss a solution. Let's also hope that the NKV will make extra contacts in this situation, so that we will be represented at the conference table in the future, prior to these types of actions, so that we kiteboarders will also be heard and have influence.
We will keep you informed about the progress.
