KITEAID would like to welcome Thierry Leblanc to the KITEAID team. Thierry lives for kiting. Founder and owner of Kiteproject, a kite park situated just north of Montreal, Canada. Thierry is very familiar with the challenges of running a kite school and shop. Great guy to talk to and hangout with on the water and on the beach. Don’t hesitate to ask him how he can help with your kite repair needs for your school or shop.

Welcome to KITEAID, Thierry!

In the May 2011 edition of Kiteboarding Magazine, KITEAID’s Day Saver Kit is featured as the repair product to buy in the 2011 Gear Preview. The Day Saver Kit is KITEAID’s all-in-one kit, giving you a repair solution for your kite’s sail, leading edge, struts, bladder and valves.

KITEAID is proud to announce a joint venture with EPIC KITES. We are happy to associate ourselves with EPIC KITES as we believe they have always focused on quality and customer service. Following this philosophy, when you purchase a 2011 EPIC kite you will now find a custom KITEAID repair kit inside the bag at no extra cost.

Be sure to go try one of these kites as the performance is outstanding and the quality is exceptional.

Good wind!

The KITEAID team

We are working on a new product for improving strut and leading edge repair here at KITEAID. We will be adding this product to our Sail Repair Kit and Day Saver Kit once it is ready.

Currently we are using our sail repair material for strut and leading edge repair as you can in the Leading Edge Strut Repair video. This has been working fine, but because the sail repair patch was designed for the kite’s canopy, it has different elongation properties than the strut material.
