Competition

We’ve teamed up with Ride Engine to bring you a fantastic prize this issue. All you have to do is subscribe to be in with a chance of winning! The Air Box Mini is the biggest thing to happen in pumping your kite since we got rid of the hand pumps in 2001! Get on the water faster, let the pump do the work while you do your lines, it’s also great for travelling, being considerably smaller than a traditional pump!

Last month during a series of clinics in Egypt, many of our guests often commented on how impressive it looked to be riding around on a surfboard without straps, and of course how much fun it looked even on flat water. On top of this the general consensus was that it must be very difficult. Au contraire mes amis! In...

ION Products Amaze Core 4/3 Front Zip Wetsuit Women

When I first unboxed ION’s Amaze CORE 4/3 Front Zip, the very first thing I noticed was how incredibly soft it felt. It did not have that stiff, rubbery feel you sometimes get with thicker wetsuits. The colour immediately stood out too. The purple and lime green combo is bright, bold, and definitely a standout on the beach. What I...
