How will the OKA help me protect kiteboarding at my beach?
Ultimately, if there’s a major problem, then local kiteboarders will have to solve it. Someone or some people from the beach will have to speak to the authorities. The OKA can help by connecting you with riders in your area that can work with you. The OKA can also connect you with kiteboarders that have already dealt with similar issues at their beach, and you can learn from them. Most importantly the OKA can communicate the resolution to the entire membership base. This will have serious resonance with the authorities since you’re effectively no longer a single kiteboarder, but a representative of all the kiteboarders in Ontario. That’s how this thing works (so join!).
