KITESURFING

Kitesurfing has become increasingly popular in recent years, as adrenaline junkies continue merging their sports and equipment. A kitesurfing kite (also known as a traction kite) is essentially a large kite designed to provide significant pull to full grown men (or woman), and depending on the make and model can easily pull a man over 200 pounds. These kites come in a few different models: foil kites, supported leading edge kits, and leading edge inflatable kites. The kites are either soft single kite skins or rigid framed kites.
