Blue Palawan Open 2017<br />
The Philippines: Kite Park in true tropical style<br />
The Philippines<br />
Kite Park in true tropical style<br />
The tropical country of the Philippines. Not the first<br />
place you'd think of having a kiteboarding slider<br />
park. Nevertheless, nestled on the shoreline among<br />
the mangroves, lies Blue Palawan, home to Asia's<br />
first slider park. The island nation of the Philippines<br />
is privy to countless islands but the most famous<br />
for kiteboarding remains Boracay. Blue Palawan<br />
and Blue Kiteboarding are seeking to change that.<br />
Last year marked the inaugural event of the Blue<br />
Palawan Kiteboard Open, an invitational contest<br />
that brought the best in the world to ride the newly<br />
minted slider park. In February 2017, the second<br />
annual Blue Palawan Open proceeded without a<br />
hitch. Join me as I take you on a whirlwind trip<br />
through the Philippines. Prepare to get wet.<br />
