WHO ARE WE?

​

We are one of the innovators who advanced the development of kitesurfing back in the 1990s.

​ 

With a background in Kite Buggying and Windsurfing, we tinkered for years with kites, boards and boats to create KiteSurf in 1996 which is now often cited as the generic name of the sport.

​

While there were others emerging in the sport, we were the ones who put it on the map!

In 1999, not only had we established kitesurfing as a sport, but moreover we brought about its largest variation by merging kitesurfing and wakeboarding through recruiting one of the best wakeboarders in the world at the time, Shannon Best. 

​

With the entry of key players from the windsurfing and wakeboard industry, we took a step back to allow for the industry to mature before returning to the forefront of the sport.
 

Over the last 10 years, Shannon developed his own identity in the sport where he is now recognized as one of its innovators.  After having developed Best Kiteboarding and unhappy with the direction the brand had taken under the investors' managements, Shannon Best returns to Kitesurf to focus on the original core direction.
 

Our 2014 line of boards and kites embodies 20 years of Kitesurfing and wakeboarding equipment development, mixing  both our original fundamentals of the sport and an urban vibe.​

​

We thrive to offer the best kitesurfing equipment on the market!
