CREWLOVERS — Find your Crew, ride together
Kiting alone? Not anymore. CrewLovers shows who's at the spot, matches you with the right riders, and gets you on the water together — safely.
See who's at the spot, join sessions, plan downwinders and ride safer with local kiters. Join the CREWLOVERS Beta and help shape the social layer of GoSalty.
Discover nearby riders — AI-powered matches, live map and quick session invites.
WHY THIS WORKS
Our edge — sport data + personalisation
Because GoSalty already knows your profile — skill, quiver and travel style — CrewLovers doesn't just show people nearby: it matches you with the right ones for better sessions.
