HD Videos from Hua Hin Kiteboarding World Cup 2010

Between 13 - 20 March 2010 Hua Hin again celebrated its 100th anniversary with an event that should make Hua Hin, and Thailand as a whole, very proud. There were problems with the wind in the middle of the competition, but it all came together at the end to produce a thrilling final and a great advertisement for Hua Hin, which at just 2 - 3 hours from Bangkok is becoming an increasingly popular holiday destination for foreigners and Thai residents alike.

The InterContinental Hua Hin Resort deserves a mention, as not only is it in our eyes at least, the best hotel in the centre of Hua Hin, it was also a main sponsor. We will have a lot more about why this hotel is so very special soon.

Below we have a few HD videos of the world cup and it must be stressed that more are on the way, including shots of the prize giving and more competition videos.
