NEW FOR 2022 - KITE / WING / FOIL RENTALS!! I hav NEW FOR 2022 - KITE / WING / FOIL RENTALS!!

I have kept the cost reasonable considering the cost of simply renting a SUP for an hour locally and the cost of gear rental internationally. Could be a session saver renting a 14.5 Flite or 165 Mako after a 2 hour drive to find the wind dying. Wingfoiling progression is fast, why buy a $2000 big board when you will outgrown it in a few sessions. I will have the service setup on my website in a few weeks but in the meantime will post here a day or 2 in advance when I plan at being at one of the local spots. I plan on being at Rondeau a lot this spring until the weeds get bad. I am now 75% of the time winging so kite gear is available. 🙂

The cost will be for a 2-3 hr session

$75 kite complete 
$40 kiteboard
$50 Foilboard only
$75 Foilboard and Axis foil setup
$40 Ocean Rodeo Glide Wing

The following gear will be available.

KITES: 14.5m Flite (HL and Aluula) | 12m Crave (HL) | 12m 10m Aluula Rise l 10m Roam (HL and Aluula) | 8m Roam (HL) 
BARS: Pilots and Shifts
KITEBOARDS: 165 Mako King | 145 Airush FoilSkate | 139 Smoothy | 138 Tumbler | 130 Smoothy | Naish 129 Kite Hover
FOILBOARDS: 139L Buwave | 110L AK Phaser | 105L Bluwave | 90L Phazer | 65L Phazer
WINGS: 4m (HL) | 5m (HL and Aluula) | 6m (HL)
WING FOILS: AXIS 1150 PNG | 1050 HPS | 930 HPS | 999 ART | 899 ART
