Top 10 Reasons to Support Your Local Shop or School STUDENT QUOTE: "Like most people, I looked online for prices and deals on kite equipment. I decided to buy my gear through Boardsports School and I'm so happy I did. They gave me a free rig session including how to rig my new kite, how to tune it, and how to care for it. They also showed me how to be comfortable launching and landing at the crowded beach. The info and help I received was invaluable. Thank you Boardsports School!"

Kites

The Great Debate: SLE versus C-shape C-shape kites are the first choice for riders who demand constant high performance, offering a more direct feel, and a kiting experience that is more engaging. They excel for both hooked in and unhooked riding, giving quick pop and easy handling. SLE kites are aimed at riders looking for a kite with the broadest wind range per size that is forgiving and easy to jump. Increased projected area is combined with the largest and quickest depower anywhere in the flying window, making them ideal for gusty conditions, freeriding, and waveriding. |

Naish Boxer SLE The 07 Boxer is a true all-terrain kite designed for freeriding, jumping, freestyle, and wave riding. Its medium aspect, SLE shape largely expands your riding wind range and provides incredible smooth pull, stability, predictability and depower. Adjustable bridal line attachments and the new SLE Control System give you the option of a 2:1 or 1:1 setting depending on your personal style and preference. We have found the Boxer SLE extremely forgiving, simple, powerful and easy to relaunch. Having the durability that Naish is know for, this is the top choice for beginners and intermediate riders...and it is well priced below its competitors. Price includes SLE Control System bar, pump & repair kit

The lightning fast turning speed and more forgiving depower making unhooked maneuvers sick! Price includes double depower control bar, pump & repair kit:

naish shockwave The '07 Shockwave is a wave rider's dream. Having taught lots of lessons on this kite last year, we found the Shockwave to be incredibly stable and easy to fly. Aimed at the performance wave rider and jumper, the new 2007 Naish Shockwave has extended wind range, a refined aspect ratio, and precise control that will take any kiter to new heights. It is even faster turning for efficient riding, and has improved water relaunch characteristics.. The Shockwave bar pressure has been radically reduced compared to the ’06 edition, and is now "tuneable" as a result of its new rigging options.

naish Custom wide The Custom Wide 139 is specifically for ultra-light-wind conditions. Though people might say "What in the world is that?" as you walk by, you will be the first one on the water while everyone else waits for it to pick up! The Custom Wide is in a class all by itself, not to be compared with any other twin tips. Some other brands make boards for light winds that require very difficult board trim and get out of control as soon as the wind reaches a moderate speed. The Custom Wide is engineered to meet the same light wind threshold while still offering fun, controllable performance when the wind picks up. A fly-weight gel-coat finish for top performance for intermediate and advanced riders. Sizes: 139 x 46.5 Price: $639 |

The Sol uses proven snowboard construction with a tip to tip wood core giving you strength and pop… The Sol excels at power freestyle, but is still ultra smooth when you want to go out and carve… Price: $639

naish cUSTOM WAVE SS The SS (Side Shore) boards are responsive, fast and durable wave boards with a lot of versatility. The more narrow shape gives the board more speed than you'd expect and because it handles chop very well. The toe side edge is easier than most surf boards. An added bonus is that the board is a quad fin that comes with two large and two small fins. That means you basically get 2 boards in 1. Put the large fins in the back and you have fast up-wind, wide arc and very stable board. Put the large fins in the front and watch this board become looser and slash through a turn with the slightest input...and it's super durable to boot. Sizes: 4'9", 5'2" and 5'10 Price: $699
