Profiling people from around the world whose lives are all about the hedonistic mix of music and kiting.

Bilderback hauls his troops to Tahiti, the scene of dreams and a nightmare for Mauricio Abreu on his last trip. This year, like all good pros, 'Morris' faced his fears alongside Jason Slezak, Moe Gould and Josh Mulcoy

After spending six years bringing him up in a Land Rover travelling around Asia and Africa, Miguel Willis's parents settled on living in Oman in the Middle-East when he was nine-years-old. Since then, travelling has been in his blood and he's visited the world's most remote kite spots.

The former two time world champion sheds some light and expresses his opinions on the issues that matter in today's ever-growing kiting universe.

Cheryl Harrison meets and profiles some of the more colourful characters on the beach.

Kiteworld hit the streets to see what's buzzing from around the globe. Take a look back at what we found.

Colin McCulloch lost his year long battle with a brain tumor, passing away peacefully on the morning of 29 June 2009 with his family close by. Read an interview we conducted with him from issue #15 here.

Cheryl Harrison is and does just that in this series of articles that follow her progress in learning to kitesurf. We were all there once remember.

Unleashing words of wisdom and inspiration from the guys and gals who have been there and done that. The best in the business share their thoughts with you right here. Pay attention now.

Taken from issue #10, the then young and upcoming Adam Koch gives Kiteworld a revealing and in depth interview. That was way back in 2004! More recently we caught up with him in issue #45 to see how things have changed.

Chancing his arm on a daring dream, would life on a luxury 57-foot catamaran and a series of globe-trotting ten and 14 day 'Best Odyssey' remote expeditions chasing wind and waves be any better? You bet, but it's not all a bed of roses. Gavin McClurg explains all.
 
"A cop with a moustache also hid under mt table. His hand was shaking on his gun and, from time to time, he'd half-open the door." Jeremie Eloy and friends encounter more than just incredible waves in Mexico...
 Kiting's For Girls





Try saying that to these heavyweight boxers who have stepped in the ring with the likes of Tyson!
 Rhythm & Health
If you thought Tarifa was dying, you'd be wrong. It's still one of the most important venues in world kiteboarding - with many brands basing their R&D centres there - and is, without doubt, the nerve centre of European riding culture, providing a strong beating heart that keeps the travelling throngs pumping in
 alvaro onieva

I remember watching Alvaro Onieva ride the first time at PKRA contest in Sardinia in 2005. His unique 'skate style' was unlike anything I'd seen before and is now the only thing I remember about that trip.
  
At just 15 years-of-age, Gisela Pulido is probably the most highly sponsored rider in kiteboarding. A string of five world championships in two world tours at the ages of 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 have helped, but there's no doubt that her father, Juanma, has been instrumental in her development.
 
Jaime Herraiz is one of the good guys in kiteboarding. When you meet him, that big, warm smile hits you like a slap across your soul.
hadlow
Since he claimed the number one ranking in the world almost five years ago, Aaron Hadlow has never been anywhere else at any stage of a season.

Kite design is a full time job and goes slowly and, hopefully, surely. Jim Gaunt went along to the F-One meeting in Mauritius to track the development process of the new 2010 Bandit Three (and scored six out of six days on the water to boot!)

 MOTOR DRIVE: PROJECT TRANSITIONS

The transition is one of the first aerial tricks you will learn. Changing direction in theair may sound complicated, but because the kite moves smoothly in only on direction and can be done quite slowly, it's not as demanding as you might think.
