Made For You

Kiteboarding equipment has never looked better, but there is still something special about owning a board that nobody else on the beach has. Lieuwe takes customisation considerably further than simply choosing a colourway, giving riders the opportunity to create something genuinely personal. From photographs and artwork to completely bespoke designs, we discover how you can turn one of their boards into something that is unmistakably yours.

Visit Brazil if you’re crazy about kitesurfing and can't get enough. Brazil offers a great and diverse selection of spots and consistent winds. In the small villages, you will find only fishermen and kitesurfers, so it’s easy to say that  “eat, sleep, kite repeat” applies pretty well for a Brazilian kitesurfing holiday. It’s hard not to forget about the rest...

Sometimes this is a positive sign, a gentleman’s handshake with your learning curve, but sometimes it’s quite the opposite. Take for example your latest powered pop move, maybe a Raley to blind. It...
