It is going to be the end of an era people. No, don't panic, we are not closing, but we are moving house! Our 'Tardis' blue box on the Noosa River has served us well for many years. From its humble beginnings with Chris De Aboitiz back in the early 2000's to now, we have slowly expanded our boundaries as you guys have supported us (thanks for that by the way), but our little shopping centre is now very busy and parking and access along with ceiling height and space in general are getting in short supply. 

So...... Welcome to our soon to be, new home: 136 Eumundi Rd Noosaville is undergoing a face lift and we will be all settled in by late June. Watch the renovations via Facebook as we paint, signwrite, clean, carpet, fit out and transform this abandoned warehouse into our new home.

Now..... We have one favour to ask in order to make the moving process easier. There are some stock items we are looking to clear or reduce as we relocate so we are offering some huge discounts on clothing, shoes, snorkels, pool toys, sunnies, wetsuits, PFD's, accessories and so much more. Check out the savings:

T shirts all $25

Boardies all $40

Globe & Cobian Thongs all $20

Hive Swimwear all $30 a piece

For the month of May, all wetsuits, boogie boards, Keens Footwear and Clothing will be on clearance, so come in, take one last look at the old shop & grab a bargain!

Don't forget, stay tuned to check out the renovations and fit out as we go. The staff are all super excited and we are looking forward to our 'shop' warming party coming soon.

Take a look at an old photo of Liam and our little shop on the Noosa River, back in 2007.

Every year as a small business we get asked to donate to loads and loads & it seems an ever increasing list of loads of charities. 

Now we have sponsored many of them over the years, but a lot of the money donated goes to administration costs for these charitable organisations and we have been thinking (I know dangerous but) there must be a better way.  

So, we would like to offer a local young person (under 18) the opportunity to learn to kitesurf FREE, along with a FREE used set up. Application is open to anyone aged between 15-18 years.

All nominations need to be by the nominee (the young person themselves). Submissions can be a video, audio, in writing or in person (instore). Tell us why you want to learn to kitesurf, what other sports you enjoy, what you like or don't like about school and anything else you think we should know.

Nominations close 30th March 2015   

Extended until the end of April School Holidays

21-22nd February at Elliot Heads

Join in for this two day progression clinic, FREE to all girls with their own gear. It doesn't matter if you are a beginner or looking to learn unstrapped or unhooked riding, there is something for everyone.

The camp will start at 10.30am Saturday & finish up 5pm Sunday. BYO tent or book other accommodation. Call us in the shop on 0754556677 if you need more details. 

Light wind & high wind options are catered for. See you there.

George has recently been testing the new Foil Board from Liquid Force. It certainly has awesome upwind ability and seems to work well on a variety of kite sizes. He is mastering the technique and will be offering lessons or running a clinic later in the season.

The skim fish board is easily detached and makes a great alternative for light wind or unstrapped riding progression and many intermediate riders have found it quite easy to use.
