The Babaomby spot situated on Madagascar’s Emerald Sea lagoon gathers a beautiful and diverse playground for kitesurfers with excellent wind conditions. The spot is ranked among the ten windiest spots on the planet by Windguru and offers everything a kitesurfer dreams about: safe conditions in shallow and crystal clear waters, two wave zones easily accessible only a 15-minute ride away...

Ninety kilometres south of Fortaleza, the tiny village of Uruaú is famous for its 24-hour blowing wind! The wind is perfect for riders learning new tricks, improving their skills or beginners wanting to progress. Even though Uruaú is a tiny village, it has everything you'll need as it is close enough to Fortaleza but free from any city stresses! Furthermore,...
The Isle of Thanet
I believe the Isle of Thanet to be quite a unique destination when it comes to kiting on the mainland of the UK. Once described as a boil on the butt cheek of Britain, I now like to refer to it as more of a beauty spot lovingly! As kitesurfers, we are undoubtedly spoilt; never being more than a 10-minute...

Blind Judge 3
We’re expecting that you can already stomp the blind judge, and therefore we’ll tweak what you have to move you towards the full monty. In tech terms, considering that you should land a blind judge pretty much down wind, you’re only going to have to turn just over another 90˚ to claim this one, but that’s a bit like saying...
Tail Grab Board Off
This one has been a long time coming. Back to the golden days, old school, or as a certain Toby likes to call it, Airstyle. Loosening your straps and boosting a board off is an acceptable and handsome add on to anybody’s box of tricks, or an alternative to bone crunching kite loops or changing down for some unhooked mayhem...
Blind to Toeside Carve
Continuing along the path of hooked in moves to keep you busy and anything to and from blind here is a cheeky blind turn. Blind is sometimes described as toeside backwards, and this demonstrates it nicely. At the beginning it’s basically a slide turn from blind, which you come out of carving on your toes, but once you perfect it,...

Cabrinha Drifter Apex
The Cabrinha Drifter Apex 2026 is a surf-oriented kite designed around down-the-line drift, rapid steering and immediate power control. The model’s primary role remains wave riding, where the kite must continue to follow the rider when the lines are lightly loaded, but Cabrinha also positions this generation for strapless freestyle. Its predictable bar feel, pop and controlled landings broaden the...
DUOTONE Spike SLS
The Spike SLS is Duotone's lightweight light-wind twin tip, designed to start early, hold speed and travel efficiently upwind when conventional boards struggle to plane. Unlike a purely passive door-style board, it also retains enough response and pop for hooked freestyle and jumps. Its large surface area, flat rocker and long outline are combined with SLS carbon and Innegra materials...
DUOTONE Shred
The Shred is Duotone's youth-specific freeride and freestyle twin tip, scaled and tuned for younger riders rather than simply presenting an adult board in a shorter length. Its narrow outline, soft flex and early-planing shape are intended to reduce the leverage and power required to control the edge. At the same time, durable construction, useful grip and responsive carving give...
