Not sure what you're budget looks like, but Cap Est Lagoon Resort and Spa in Martinique is pretty amazing. Hotel is just about as nice as hotels get - amazing rooms with privates plunge pools etc. Kiting is right there - footsteps away from your breakfast table. Large tropical lagoon, really consist...

I've travelled a lot with my 2.5 year old boy....I load the outside pocket of the kitebag with a combination of nappies and plastic toys (all of which weigh nothing)...when I get grilled, I tell them its full of kids stuff for the beach - and show them if they ask. Works everytime....but might be ki...

Thats absolutely right - as we all know, kites are very expensive things. After a lot of research I was expecting big things of the Rhino. After using the kites, I felt really happy with how the kites performed - particularly that the hype concerning lift, speed, upwind etc was justified. Nothing su...

Admittedly he was about 10 kg lighter than me - and a lot lot better - I was really powered (but not so much that I needed to ch...

Hi there - yes, this was my first time with the new style of kites. I waited for the Rhino because I didn't like the look of other kites luffing / distorting in the air and I've always liked to sail very powered - so the Rhino looked perfect.

Rhino 07 - 14m and 10m - review by normal guy

With all the hype around the new Rhinos, I thought somebody might be interested in hearing what a normal old intermediate rider thinks. I'm the guy who does 20 days a year and still thinks hes clever cos he can ollie 180 and ride toeside - you get the picture. I bought the 14m and 10m to replace a q...
