Kiteboarding these days
Posted: Sunday, January 3rd, 2010 | Categories: Gear and Equipment
Back in November, we can thank the boys down in Bermuda (a wee vacation) for the motivation to go purchase a kite. Nothing like the winter to keep us busy with iceboating and now kiteboarding as well. Purchased a 10.5 m^2 made by Naish… Awesome video to come shortly!

New Sailing Video Added
Posted: Monday, May 11th, 2009 | Categories: Media Coverage
The latest sailing installment has been added to the net and is appearing in our feature video slot… and soon to be added to our Vids page.
These boats are called i14’s and there are quite a few of them in Alberta being sailed competitively. They are 14 feet long, 6 feet wide, and carry lots of sail area for the size of boat. Sailing i14’s involve stamina, strength, and agility in order to sail the boat to its full potential.
Enjoi.

Cottage Magazine Article, Nov/Dec
Posted: Tuesday, January 27th, 2009 | Categories: Media Coverage
This is a shout out to Desiree and Dale of Cottage Magazine for coming up with a great two page spread in regards to what can be done at the cabin during the cold winter months. Thanks guys! Hopefully this promotes the sport of iceboating at least a little bit.
See the ‘Cottage Magazine’ two page editorial here.
Iceboating season has been bunk thus far, but hopefully Feb/March begins to see some improvement.
