We figured we’d better let ya’ll know that we just put our team riders’ full line-up of 2007 Naish Torch kites up for sale! Actually, we might be obligated to tell our team riders about this as well, but they’ll know soon enough. We like to avoid confrontation whenever possible, so we just “fixed the [...]
We could go in all sorts of directions with this one, but we’ll try to keep it clean. Our latest shipment of stand up paddle boards arrived recently, and we’re all busy unpacking these glossy beauties. We now have no less than six different boards that will be happy to serve your every stand up [...]
Phew! We figured we’d let ya’ll know that we just finished updating our entire DAKINE product line for the fall/winter 2007-2008 season. Our vast stores of summer gear are beginning to dwindle, and everything is making way for the autumn that is to come. From travel gear to backpacks, girly bags to skate packs, everything [...]
Howdy, ya’ll! Just a brief note to let you know that all of our windsurfing boards from 2007 are currently on sale. That includes wave boards, freestyle boards, freeride boards… why, boards for just about all the riding styles and conditions that you could imagine! Most of our prices are too low to print, so [...]
For a limited time only, we’re offering some amazing prices on the 2007 North Vegas. This is a great kite for intermediate and advanced riders who love being powered up while riding. The North Vegas is a high-performance C-shaped kite, but its swept wingtips give it the wide wind range and huge depower of a [...]
The world must be experiencing an epidemic of lost board syndrome, as there’s been a run on kiteboarding leashes for the last few weeks. We’re the first shop in Hood River to get these guys back in stock, which makes us pretty darn spankin’ proud. We’re now outfitted with the standard NSI Reel Leash, as [...]
It seems that windsurfers just can’t get enough of the French stylings of Okespor booties, which is why we’ve finally added them to our full bootie lineup on our company website. Some people love the easy entry and exit allowed by the zippered side on the Superokfun Boot, while other people prefer the strapless, minimalist [...]
Over here at Big Winds, we talk to a lot of people who are just starting to get into kiteboarding, and who are completely baffled by the huge selection of kites and kiteboards available these days. Sifting through the near-limitless array of gear can be a daunting task, so we took the time to put [...]
Having just returned from a trip across the country, I feel compelled to share my thoughts on Dakine’s Over Under. This is a spiffy piece of luggage, packed with nice features and a look that helps it stand out from the crowd. Carry-On Luggage Mode The key component of the Over Under is a beefy [...]
Phew, we’ve been waiting for these guys for quite a long while, but they’re finally here! The Speedtech Skymate is a solid windmeter that seems to have been designed with windsurfers and kiteboarders in mind. In addition to measuring the current windspeed (in your choice of knots, mph, kph, feet/minute, meters/second and Beaufort) at your [...]
