Jeff, Ben and Martin bring you a fresh look at the future of kitesurfing in a full length video titled Spare Change.
As innovative as our kites and boards are, they have spent the last year honing their riding styles to define what technical kitesurfing is all about.
Their travels have taken them all across the globe from Indonesia to Western Australia. And they have risked life and limb to ride the biggest waves to share with you what the future holds.
Join them in the big wave experience of a lifetime. Video release due in February! Check back at http://www.sskiteboarding.com online store this month to order your copy soon.
