Kite Surfing

August 25, 2008  

Tip: Looking for kite surfing conditions in Muskegon? Check out our Muskegon Weather page.

King of the Great Lakes Kiteboarding Competition photos are included below. We are not sure who these talented kite boarders are, but if you know their names, please let me know and I’ll get them posted.

Did you know that Muskegon is famous for its long, wide sandy beaches? In fact, our beach is the biggest in West Michigan and loved by kite Surfing enthusiasts throughout the world!

We’ll be working on this Kite Surfing section and hope to bring you footage, pictures and information along with safety guidelines that every kite surfer needs to be aware of. It’s all about having a great time and keeping it safe!

Some awesome kite surfing videos captured right here in Muskegon can be found below:

This one is during the sunset session with Ingrid, Sara, Neda, Darius, Jon & Ramunas.

And if you it’s over during the cold season, think again. Here is a video of kiteboarding near the pierheads (note, there is no boat traffic and rocks are not forgiving!).

Yet another video of a kite surfer with a prosthetic prosthetic leg catching some big air. Sean Reyngoudt, Alex Weeks and Ben Sampson.

We would love to hear from you and welcome any comments, concerns or suggestions you might have!

Special thanks to Roberto Villate, who was kind enough to offer us his Kite Surfing expertise in getting this section packed with content for our new site!
