Kiteboarding/Kite Surfing Boards

Kiteboards come in many different shapes and sizes. You need to select the proper board that fits your skill level, wind speed, and body weight.

Beginner Kiteboards
We highly suggest the Rival twintip kiteboard by Cabrinha as the ideal kiteboard for beginners!

Bigger boards(both longer and/or wider) make it way easier to learn to kiteboard! If you are just learning you should get the biggest board possible.

Larger boards are easier because:

You can use a smaller kite so the kites pull is more manageable and safer!

Large boards stay afloat longer and allow you to still succeed even when you are making mistakes with the kite and losing kite power!

Larger boards mean being able to go out in lower winds, which are usually more stable wind conditions.

Larger boards will allow you to learn to go upwind easier!

Intermediate to Advanced Kiteboards
I highly recommend the Crazy Fly Kiteboards as the ultimate kiteboards for Intermediate to Advanced kiteboarders!

As your skills increase, you need to scale down the board size to a smaller board. This enables you to hold down more kite power so you can start jumping and performing tricks! More advanced board designs will feature concave bottoms and ABS siderails, step tips, and other features designed to allow you to ride more kite power.

Kiteboards may look similar to a wakeboard, but they are designed specifically for kiteboarding. Twintip refers to a design that has no front and rear and can be steered in either direction without jibing, aka dual directional boards.

Kiteboards differ from wakeboards because they have a much different rocker system than a traditional wake board and are much flatter and designed to ride the edge much better than a wakeboard.
