Tech Focus - Ride Engine Charger

Helmets have long sat on the fringes of kiteboarding, but that is starting to change as the sport pushes into faster, more extreme territory. The Ride Engine Charger is built for this new era, combining a low-profile design with serious on-water performance. It is all about protection without compromise, something you will actually want to wear every session.

Palanga

On the west coast of Lithuania lies Palanga, a popular spot on the Baltic Sea for kiteboarding, landboarding, SUPing and surfing. Eighteen kilometres long and up to 300 meters wide of sandy beaches, it is the busiest summer resort in Lithuania. The conditions can be pretty choppy and wavey, especially if the wind blows from the west, northwest or southwest...

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.

Sliding Surface Pass

Ladies and Gents here’s a move that although we don’t teach very often, does have a place in your box of tricks as it leads you towards other things and can still look pretty smooth because you’re passing from blind, so it flows. The idea is basically to slide your board to blind, breaking out the tail and then adding...

Continuing on from last issue’s heel to toe carve, we can now add the other half to complete the basic requirements of wave riding. Once you can link these two turns together you are wave riding, however mythically it may appear to onlookers, and all you need to add is a genuine curl of water chasing you and before you...

Barefoot Water-ski Dismount

Unsurprisingly here is another fun filled move from Heliarde. The water-ski or barefoot dismount. Not only does this look the absolute shizzle, but it’s also a good way to train yourself for the joys of the Jesus Walk should you be so inclined. The beauty is that even if you consider yourself to be on the wrong end of the...

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...
