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.

Nalu Series

2011 Naish Nalu 11'6"

2011 Naish Nalu 11'4"

The Nalu 11'6" is the standard by which all other full-sized SUPs are judged. The board is thick and stable, and rides rail-to-rail like a much shorter board. Suitable for riders even above 200 lbs., the Nalu 11'6" features classic lines, unbeatable construction, and awesome all-around appeal.

The Nalu 11'4" is the high performance sibling of the 11'6". It is thinner and has more outline curve and rocker, with a one-plus-two fin setup. The 11'4" provides excellent all-around riding performance and effortless longboard style rail-to-rail carving. Its volume-to-width ratio also makes it an ideal beginning board for light riders.

While working with Dave Kalama, Harold Iggy created the Nalu 9’6” to bring his powerful longboard style of riding to the SUP world. The single-concave bottom offers plenty of stability, while it’s narrower outline, rocker, and 3 fin thruster set-up deliver huge turning potential.

Hokua Series

2011 Naish Hokua 11'6" Gun

2011 Naish Hokua 10'8" + 9'8" Gun

2011 Naish Hokua 9'6"

The Hokua 11’6” Gun is the ultimate SUP for serious big surf. The singleconcave entry with a slight doubleconcave mid-section and V-tail, is combined with extra width in the nose area to help you get in early. The narrow pintail shape delivers the speed and control you need for going big. It is also good fun in small surf.

Construction: Sandwich Wood
Fin set-up: Single

- 11'6" Gun
- 28 1/4" x 4 1/4"
- 143L





With the big wave success of the 11’6’’ gun, we decided to add two smaller performance gun models to the range. These boards feature single-concave bottom shapes with an accelerated V out the tail making them easy to control at high speeds. The increased tail kick, at 8 inches from the tail, allows these boards to still turn loose and tight. The 9’8’’ was Kai Lenny’s choice during his winning performance at the Sunset Beach Stand-up Contest.

- 130L
The 9’6’’ is an extremely popular, versatile shortboard-style SUP board. With its fast rocker, it can be ridden with either a quad or thruster FCS fin set-up. The wide nose facilitates nose riding, and its hybrid outline delivers an excellent balance of long and shortboard riding styles.

Hokua Series

2011 Naish Hokua 9'0" + Hokua 8'5"

2011 Naish Hokua 8'0"

2011 Naish Hokua 7'8" + Hokua 7'3"

With the sport of stand-up paddling growing at a high speed, the development of performance SUP boards does not come to a stop. After setting the standard in short board style stand-up boards, we came up with two new designs that are poised to raise the existing standard. Both boards combine a single-concave entry section in the nose area with a double-concave center section leading into an accelerated V out the tail. The increased tail kick allows these shapes to release off the top effortlessly while the center V-section keeps the shape loose and easy to steer during the bottom turn. Unlike many other boards, the design of the 9’0’’ and 8’5’’ does not require you to shift body weight over the rocker as much, resulting in a shortboard-style riding. Both boards also feature a newly introduced deck concave, making balancing easier.

Construction: Sandwich Wood
Fin Setup: 2+1/Quad

- 28 3/4" 3 x 3/4"
- 125L

- 8'5"
- 28" x 3 3/4"

The Hokua 8’0” is an unreal small SUP board for progressive groms, and ultra-light riders. With this board, the next generation will take the sport to a whole new level.

Construction: Sandwich Wood Fin Setup: 2+1

- 8'0"
- 26 1/8" x 3 3/4"
- 95L








The Hokua 7’3’’ & 7’8” lead the pack for stand-up boards designed for beach break surf conditions. While the classic SUP friendly breaks allow the use of longer boards with more momentum, these boards target the short and steep beach breaks that are common in many areas. The shortness of the boards allow them to fit into these conditions better while delivering acceleration and tight turns. Due to its size we recommend the 7’3” model for riders up to 165 pounds with a high skill level. While the 7’8” will perform for riders up to 190 pounds.

Construction: Sandwich Wood
Fin Setup: 2+1/Quad

- 7'8"

Glide Series

2011 Naish Glide 14'0" Javelin + Glide 14'0" Javelin AST

2011 Naish Glide 12'6" Catalina

2011 Naish Glide 12'0" AST

The Glide 14’0” Javelin is designed for maximum speed in flatwater. It incorporates a low rocker displacement bow shape with soft-rounded rails to produce the most efficient ratio of paddle power to board glide. Unlike the Glide 14’0”, which is primarily designed for open-ocean paddling where speed can be generated by gliding on swells, the Glide 14’0” Javelin is focused on flatwater speed. The Javelin’s slender displacement hull shape, coupled with its soft rails, create an extremely efficient water line. At 26-1/8” wide, it is still stable enough for average paddlers, yet provides the sleek streamlined properties that make it a race winner for the advanced paddler. The Javelin slices through chop and provides outstanding acceleration and speed with minimal effort. It is the perfect board for long distance flatwater cruising, fitness training and racing.
Construction: Carbon or AST
Fin Setup: Single

- 14'0" Javelin

- 14'0" Javelin AST

- 284L
With surf-style racing events like the “Battle of the Paddle” gaining popularity, we developed a flatwater stand-up paddle board to fit the 12’6’’ class. The board implements elements of the successful Glide 14’0’’ Javelin, targeting maximum glide at minimum effort. The lower rocker profile, round rails and recessed deck achieve the highest efficiency in smooth water. Its concave deck section with the water release feature, adds stability due to the lower center of gravity, and lets the incoming water flow out naturally through theintegrated side pipes.

The Glide 12’0” utilizes design principles from the Glide 17’0” and 14’0”. The shorter length makes it easy to maneuver, creating a great cruising board. The flat rocker makes it glide without effort, and its added width provides amazing stability. It’s the perfect choice for flatwater adventures, cruising with friends, and recreational racing.
