Cliff Jumping

At one stage in history sailing off a cliff in your sailboat was just a dream,

today it is a lifestyle, where style is everything!

Let's not forget that only 2019 gear can make your riding experience good. Anything older is so out of date.
It's already April, 2020 gear is behind the corner.
I woudn't bother go kiting with 19 stuff anymore. Those kites should be recycled into trendy vintage bags.

f%$ck damn it.

Well BIG NEWS.

We decided to organise the 2019 World Cliff Sailing Championships and as part of the opening ceremony, celebrity World Champion Sailor Mark Munterman has agreed to launch his 20 tonne keel boat off the olympic 120ft cliff in order to spiritually bring together the sport of sailing, and to show we are all the same on the outside, and inside.

Already lined up to try and beat the cliff sailing hangtime record record are a very well know Americas Cup team with a new secret single hulled foil design, the Bolivian Topper national team and the around the World Sailor Bjorn Akerdakaroff and his 65 foot racing yacht Boaty McBoatface.

Get involved, if you don't, you are part of the problem!

Note: World sailing are the global authority of all sailing, including cliff sailing.

See you there, exciting times!

Here is a sneak preview of new olympic trial sailing sport >>

I don't see many Kiters using Cabrinha Fireball. I use this and feel it is far better than the chicken loop. Won't go back.

So 2015.

This years hot kite organisations are the GKA wave tour - where they compete for the title of wave world sailing champion by surfing their boards in the air while sitting down, air wave sailing - who knew! SO hot.

And lets not forget that the GKA that brought us a spectacular mix of sailing styles in their championships - where you can change from a twintip to a wakeboard , i mean sailing craft, mid heat. Forward thinking right there! Now little Jonny has the wakeboard and the the twintip on the christmas list (clever business ;-) )!! Affordability for kids is what we are all about. Encouraging and growing the industry our goal, and with our 5% discount code developing country youth can now dream of becoming Carlos Mario by purchasing our twintip and wakeboard competition combo, in fact this offer will extend to the second quiver of wakestyle or freestyle kites you will need to podium. Inclusion - that is what we are all about - every little bit helps. Namaste.

High cut thong wetsuit for girls are in! All the benfits of a wetsuit without the benefits.
