The After Party

For the riders in Big Windy, the only thing better than scoring all over the world, is scoring at home. Davey Blair, Reo Stevens, John Amundson, Konrad Bright, Ian Alldredge and Ben Wilson riding.

Naish Alaia Surfboard

Target: A light wind gem in a simple finless, strapless design.

When Captain Cook discovered Hawaii in the 18th century, he and his crew witnessed surfing for the first time. True to its roots, the Alaia takes it back to where surfing began in Hawaii.

The Alaia is shaped out of solid Paulownia wood, with a design that has been refined for modern day surfing. This inspired the Alaia’s transition into kiteboarding.

The Alaia shines in light wind. It has amazing upwind performance and is super fun to ride when the winds aren’t cranking.

Can be used as an Alaia surfboard.

Sizes: 5’9” x 15½”

Bareback



LTD gets on a plane and explores around Indonesia to find surf, wind, pretty girls, awesome food, and a laid back good time. This is from our first stop in LTD's island hopping exploits.
Its pretty sick traveling with surf and kite gear because no matter the conditions you know you are going to have a good time and spend some hours in the water.
Good times.

FREESTYLE FOCUSED

50Fifty is our new freestyle kite in the line. It comes as a replacement for a highly appreciated NHP kite, and is even more freestyle & new school focused than its predecessor. The construction is a hybrid C kite featuring advantages of both C-shape and bow types. 50Fifty features new super fast, thin profile designed especially for freestyle. In the middle of the kite you will find the floating strut. Not only it's lightweight, but also absorbs the vibrations caused by sudden gusts of wind and eliminates fluttering of the kite. Additionally, side struts were redesigned. Thanks to aerodynamics – based innovations, the kite is fast (less drag), quickly loose it's power when necessary (you'll appreciate this feature while performing new school tricks) and features excellent depower. Large surface kite wing tips improve kite's agility and secure accurate (not too much) bar pressure.

50Fifty is a powerful kite, that replies with excellent lift and POP combined with constant power while performing tricks. Impressive speed, nice pull during the whole turning process, stability, direct feeling, great unhooked performance and easy relaunch make it the kite of choice for all freestyle and new school riders, like Mike „The Knife” Blomvall.
