Dear All Subscribers and Supporters of the KPWT Magazine

I would first like to thank you all for your support and guidance over the last few years.
I had to start from scratch and work hard at mending and developing new relationships with you all and I am so glad I did.
It has been an exciting few years for me, given the opportunity to communicate my appreciation for the sport, the riders, the locations traveled and of course the brands that surround kiteboarding.
I prided the magazine on its lifestyle approach to the sport, offering a unique view and insight into the world of competitive kiteboarding.

Unfortunately today, due to a very confusing time within kiteboarding, I have decided to resign from the KPWT Magazine as Director, Editor, Advertising Sales Manager, Writer, Publisher and Overall Layout.
The Magazine brand will exist under KPWT, but the business has been closed from my side and I don’t see any future for the KPWT MAG brand.

A special thank you to Iris (previously) at JN Kites, Iain Hannay at Ozone, Alma Tassi at Cabrinha and Peter De Graaf at Haiopaii for supporting their riders on the KPWT within the magazine over the last few years.
Another thank you to Leander Vyvey, for getting his surf reports in on time and not making them too long ;-)
And thank you to Mr Gravoille, who gave me the opportunity to use the brand and support the tour.

I look forward to continue my future within kiteboarding and promoting the tour riders as best I can.
I will keep you all posted as to my progress and will announce a new venture soon.

Kind Regards

Richard Mellon
