On January 31, the 6th Annual Jupiter Kiteboarding Invasion went off in great conditions.  North winds from a cold front that came through late Friday afternoon brought 20 – 25 knots and a nice little swell with waist to overhead waves.  It was a bit cold, with air temps in the 50s to 60s.  The early rounds featured 6 man heats that had 3 wave contestants and 3 freestyle contestants competing in 8 minute heats.  Once the early rounds were finished, heats were run in each discipline with 4 contestants.  It was an interesting format and the event coordinators did a great job of running the heats.
