Hood River
Hood River buzzes with kiteboarding energy each summer. Cool air from the Pacific Ocean is sucked through the Columbia River Gorge to the hot, Eastern desert. Strong thermal winds blow nearly every day from May through September. Hood River is a charming town with a myriad of opportunities to explore the outdoors, both on and off the river. Suitable for...
The Isle of Thanet
I believe the Isle of Thanet to be quite a unique destination when it comes to kiting on the mainland of the UK. Once described as a boil on the butt cheek of Britain, I now like to refer to it as more of a beauty spot lovingly! As kitesurfers, we are undoubtedly spoilt; never being more than a 10-minute...
Mui Ne
Vietnam is in southeast Asia and runs from north to south along the South China Sea. This is a country steeped in history, so even for the non-kiter, there is plenty to see and do. Mui Ne, which means ‘sheltered peninsular’, is located 4 to 5 hours drive north of Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) and is blessed with...

Beach Bounce Transition
This is a beautifully fun move in its own right, and the first step to a stylish press. You’ve likely seen a picture or a clip of someone doing this, either on soft sand or far less sensibly on a solid object! It’s a great one to add to your armoury and if you choose the right time and spot...
Roll Tack
Many moons ago we covered the Duck Tack. Although similar to this both visually and practically, there are a few differences to the Roll Tack which we’ve found have made this the choice when coaching guests on clinics and achieving a much higher rate of continued success. Whether this is down to boards, kites, them or us we can’t say,...

Cabrinha Switchblade Apex
The Switchblade Apex takes one of the most iconic kites in the sport and gives it a serious performance upgrade for 2026. Built around the same proven five-strut platform, this version introduces a lighter, stiffer airframe using HT140 material in the leading edge. The result is a kite that retains the legendary stability of the Switchblade, but with a more...
Mystic Legacy
The Legacy Helmet follows in the footsteps of the much-loved Impact Cap in the Mystic range, and builds on that foundation with one key upgrade, a hard shell exterior. Where the Impact Cap focused on low-profile, soft-shell impact protection, the Legacy adds increased resistance to sharper objects such as fins and foils. In a world of big air and high-speed...
