"The Bridge of the Gods Kite Festival" has historically been a launching pad for amateur kiteboarders attempting to become professional's. The Amateur bracket-style contest features four categories of riders -- Men's Open, Women's Open, Master's and Junior's. And new this year, Team Riders/Semi Pro/Previous Winners will compete against each other for BOTG bragging rights. Contestants will attempt to impress the judges with their freestyle maneuvers that will be judged on difficulty, style, height and overall impression.
