Bad time for kneeboard in France. This year at the french open championship, it seems that there won't be any kneeboard. So bad !

If you know of some kneeboarders you could organize them to be prepared to enter then contact the organizers and say you have one heat ready to go. It may change their mind.
Good luck!

Sad to hear. It's what happened in most countries in past years.

You may have to set up your own championship.
Can be good fun without all those standup surfers in the way.
Also good because you can become pro-am and so win cash as well as being country champ (which most countries don't let you do).
You also get to hang out with kneeboarders for a few days - always good!

Lots of helpful people on this site if you need advice.
