The NEW The Kiteboarder Magazine and App Now Available

[marina c]

Volume 8, Number 4 is the fist issue of the new The Kiteboarder Magazine, the result of months spent rethinking what a kiteboarding magazine should look like. This magazine represents not just a new look for the magazine but also showcases our new direction as a company.


This issue is available in our new oversized print format, but we are also making the electronic version of the magazine available before the print magazine begins shipping. The Kiteboarder Magazine Volume 8, Number 4 is available either through the TKB Store (as a PDF file) http://store.thekiteboarder.com/prod...l8no2-emag.htmor you can download the issue directly to your mobile device through the brand new The Kiteboarder App http://www.thekiteboarder.com/app/.

THE FREE ONLINE VERSION OF THE PRINT MAGAZINE WILL STILL BE OFFERED online at TKB right before the next print magazine starts mailing, as in the past, but now you can get it right away if desired.

The Kiteboarder Volume 8, Number 4 features:


•The Sherman Island Kiteboarding Experience: 10 pages describing Sherman Island, the summer kiteboarding paradise located between San Francisco and Sacramento.


•Mission to the Maldives: Julian Hosp travels to the Maldive Islands to explore the archipelago’s kiteboarding potential.


•The Longest Wave: Pacasmayo, Peru: Discover the land of the mythical left point breaks.


•The Kids are Alright: The story of how kiteboarding is helping communities on the northeast coast of Brazil.

Enjoy! As always, we appreciate your support and feedback......

About The Kiteboarder:
The Kiteboarder was founded by kiteboarders with an extreme passion for the sport. From the beginning, the magazine focused on the people, places, culture, and lifestyle that make kiters so stoked about kiteboarding. Now that the sport has matured, The Kiteboarder felt the time was right for a pure lifestyle magazine with long-form feature stories consisting of thoughtful in-depth editorial and imagery that set us apart from other magazines in the kiteboarding industry. The all-new The Kiteboarder will target and appeal to intelligent kiteboarders who want a publication that encapsulates the spirit and lifestyle of kiteboarding presented in clean, elegant, and readable layouts rather than a cluttered magazine full of ads and trendy design elements.

thanks Rick! We are very stoked with the response we have been getting so far. Lots of changes in the works with the addition of 8 digital only mags too:-)

Wish we could've hung out more/caught up better... was freezing in that room and had to go outside after the awards. Then we had to leave to edit latest video interviews. Left around noon on Sat, then had 23 hours of traveling hell home and finally made it to my bed at 4a Sunday.
