Insurance
Your KWA membership includes Public Liability Insurance which is provided by Kiteboarding Australia. KA have worked closely with the insurance broker,
V-Insurance Group, to design the Kiteboarding Australia National Insurance Program.
For any matters relating to insurance, please visit the homepage of the Kiteboarding Australia National Insurance Program. This portal provides details on what is covered, frequently asked questions, policy wordings and claim forms for each of the policies which form the National Program:
Period of Cover
The policy is renewed each year to cover the period from 1 November to 31 September.
Limit of Indemnity
The policy is for Public Liability and covers up to $10,000,000 for any single occurrence. In addition to regular kite surfing activities, the policy also has the same limit of indemnity for events organised by WAKSA.
Deductible
There is a $500 excess or deductible for each and every claim.
Territorial Limits
The policy covers members whilst kiting overseas (excluding USA & Canada) when kiting in accordance with the Safe Kiting Guidelines and membership agreement. As is normal for these policies, Australian Jurisdiction applies meaning that should an incident occur and someone wants to take action against a member of KA, the case would be heard by an Australian court.
Claims
If you require information about making a claim, please read theย Incident Notificationย page.
Certificate of Currency
For the most recent Certificate of Currency, please visit the V-Insurance Information Portal where a copy can be downloaded.

SOUTH POINT SET TO BE CLOSED TO VEHICLES
If you want a say in this matter, you'll need to actually do something and that something is, email your submission to:

by this Monday, Sep 14th!!!SOUTH POINT SET TO BE CLOSED TO VEHICLES
Since motor vehicles have been around, you and your forefathers/mothers have been able to drive your/their vehicle on the beach at the point opposite Edwards Island.
HOWEVER, that right is set to be revoked by the Shire of Gingin very shortly unless you want it to stay open.
This point is a major drawcard for Lancelin. People drive out to the point to watch the sunset or have a picnic and windsurfers and kitesurfers launch from there in the summer. It is one of the reasons people come to Lancelin and losing it will hurt the town.
The Shire has proposed its closure and if no one cares, they will proceed with banning vehicles from another section of Lancelin beach.
