What is Kiteboarding?

There is a sport that is like surfing, wakeboarding, and flying all at once.  If you’ve ever been to Pismo Beach on a windy day, you will see over two dozen kiteboarders in the water or doing tricks high above it.  Most of these riders are ordinary people that are simply addicted to this amazing extreme sport called kiteboarding.

Kiteboarding uses the wind to combine the aspects of surfing, snowboarding, wakeboarding, and windsurfing into one extreme ocean sport.  The kite, anywhere from 6-20 square meters, powers the rider through the water.  The kite will have either 4 or 5 lines up to 27 meters long that connect to a control bar, which the rider pushes and pulls to control the kite in any direction.  The bar hooks into the rider’s harness, which is most often worn around the waist. A board similar to a wakeboard or surfboard enables the rider to fly over the water. Check out our kites, boards, and harnesses here

We carry Naish, DaKine, Slingshot, Neil Pryde, Caution, NPX, Starboard, Creatures of Leasure, Ocean and Earth, Werner, Garmin, AzHiAzIaM, MBS, and much more.

Slingshot Spring Products: 2010 Arcane - Tuesday, January 12, 2010 2:57 PM

Slingshot 2010 ArcaneOVERVIEW:
The 2010 5’0”Arcane, a trunk style board designed for kiting lightwind and swell, surfing behind a boat, and traditional surfing in mushy 5’ waves. 

This high volume nose and tail trunk board features progressive innovations such as wing swallow, double to single concave rolled entry bottom, ‘down’ rails, and a single concave deck which give this high volume board a sensitive rail to rail vibe which translate to a very lively feel and turns it into an ollie champ.

The ARCANE performs in lightwind and in wind swell with ease. The thickness, ultra concave deck, and width give extreme paddle power and stability for surfing for a five footer and light wind performance for kiting. The steep rails and neutral wide point give it incredible drive while the rocker give the ARCANE great speed.

So if you are looking for something different to spice up your light wind quiver the ARCANE is a must have.
