We pride ourselves on the ability to blend graphic appeal, functionality and high profile in our web design... With between 40,000 and 90,000 visitors per month since September of 2005, and an average of 1,200 - 3,800 per day, our site offers great positive exposure to the kiting community as well as association with the reputation we've developed from having more than 60 collective years of dedicated experience among our core staff of enthusiasts and competitors, supporters of kiting as a whole.

Our approach to web publishing is a relatively new one... To maintain a fully interactive, historical web-based magazine where visitors can read, look at pictures, watch videos, get news, cross-link to any other related sites, and then go and talk about it in the Kitelife Forum while they're still "hot under the collar"... The goal is to create a fluid, innovative environment for kiting at large to exchange ideas and inspirations.
