Many Alaskan kiters extend their summers or take a winter break in warm waters. This year, my family had the good fortune to head down to Mexico where we enjoyed warm waters and gentle breezes. The wind was a bit light in general, but we did manage to squeeze a few fun sessions in.

When the wind was too light to kite on the board, we took out a sit-on-top kayak with our 5M HQ Apex II and had some fun trolling around:

Now it’s time to hit the snow. Stay tuned for more snowy images in the weeks and months to come!
Kiters in Haines have been using the Kite Alerts for several years now with great success. Add your name to your region and get notified when your buddies are going kiting!
