Kites

Not sure what package to by? One kite quiver? Two kite quiver? C kites or Flat Kites? What kind of kite quiver will best suit your size and local wind conditions? What size and style of board? We had all these questions once before ourselves. Hope this helps.

If your just starting out and don’t want to dish out a lot of money and want to try and get away with one kite. Our recommendation is to go with the Ocean Rodeo-One Kite.
Lets sum this kite up briefly then we’ll explain:
Safest style of kites on the market(flatter profiled kite)
Huge Wind Rage
100% De-power(Flatter Profile)
Huge Air Time
Very Durable
Turns Faster
Single Point Inflation
Priced Well
Recent surveys show that 70% of kites being bought now are the new Flatter profiled kites and 30% are the traditional style kites

Let us begin.

The Ocean Rodeo – 2007 ONE Kite
Ocean Rodeo - THE ONE

Ocean Rodeo – One stands for just that a “one kite quiver”. They built a kite that can go in all but the very worst conditions. These ONE flat kites, in our opinion, are the safest of all flats and C kites out there. These kites are safe for there easy ability to handle heavy gusts, have a great ejection system to get you away from the kites power if need be, and 100% de-power which means you can take the power off the kite simply by pushing the bar out(sheating out). As well as being safe, the ONE has a huge wind rage and these kites are known for its easy ability to get huge air time with lots of loft. You can now spend more time on the water because this bad boy has the new Single Point Inflation system for faster set up. With all of this said these Ocean Rodeo kites are known for being very tough and very durable. This kite is the new generation of Flat SLE’s. Which means it’s a Flatter profiled kite by looking at it and it’s a Supported Leading Edge (bridal system). Keep in consideration that when we say safe we mean that you have the knowledge, have taken lessons and you know how to properly launch and fly a kite. We don’t mean you can just buy a kite, throw it up in the air and just fly it. That is totally unsafe for the fact that you have never experienced flying a kite before. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to fly one but you do need some instructing and some seat time to do it safely and properly.

The Ocean Rodeo – 2007 DIABLO Kite

The Ocean Rodeo – 2007 DIABLO

Want a competition kite or just like the traditional C-shape kite because your just not sold on the new flat kites. Well you’ve found it. This kite is your more traditional C-Shape Kite with out the old traditional handling. This bad boy turns, rips and cuts through the window on command, and sends you for those big air wake style power tricks and will blow your mind. Not convinced try our fly before you buy policy. You have to come see us at the store and we’ll let you fly it yourself before you buy it to prove it to yourself. The Diablo this year has a static 5th line to keep that leading edge stable and the new cam cleat system for de-powering your kite with out having to reach half way up your kite lines to get to the de-power strap. The diablois also equipped with the very user friendly ejection system if you do get into trouble. The Diablo is also going to get you on the water faster with its Single Point Inflation system for faster set up. To sum the Diablo up it’s a C-Shape that Turns Incredibly fast, rips through the wind window like no other, very tough, Very Durable and price well to boot.
