Welcome to Kite Line,
Kite Line is a dedicated kiteboarding, snowkiting and kitesurfing shop, established in 1999, located in the town of Bend, Oregon. We have been here since the beginning of the sport and remain one of the top kite boarding stores around the world. With thousands of satisfied customers in every continent we must be doing something right.
Our team uses all of the kiteboarding and snowkiting products we sell and we keep abreast on product changes and industry news. We all prefer many different kitesurfing and snowkiting brands and riding styles, which attests to the fact that there isn’t the perfect setup for everyone. We’re here to help you chose your perfect setup and welcome all questions.
A good way to get started is to purchase a trainer kite and to practice. We highly recommend taking a kiteboarding lesson and offer this service in the Columbia River Gorge (Hood River, OR) and La Ventana, Baja Mexico. Contact us for lesson programs and rates.
Kite Line.Com is a Green Company:
We are a green company with 100% of our power used being supplied by renewable resources (wind, solar and geothermal). Our premises are equipped with a 2kw solar power array that provides enough energy to power the business and sends un-used power back to the grid. We use recycled packing materials in our shipping department when possible. Some of us live on premise which means no commuting and other employees ride their bikes to work regularly. We also have large organic gardens on the premise to nourish our bodies and minds through out the day.
Why Buy from Kite Line?
One of the Original Kite Shops:
We are currently celebrating our 10 year anniversary, and that is proof that we have built great relationships with our kite companies and customers. We have over 15,000 customers worldwide.
All the brands we sell stand by us and we work together to insure that you, the customer, is taken care of. Whether it’s a small bolt for a board, or a full quiver of kites, we are fully committed to take care of our customers needs.
Many shops have come and gone, but Kite Line remains one of the true originals, here since the beginning of the sport, and here to stay.
We Test All Of The Gear We Sell
We are passionate kiters and stay privy to the latest gear. We make it a point to ride and fly everything we sell, so that our customers receive the best advice that matches their riding style to the best gear. Our employees and team riders attend demos and events all around the world to increase product knowledge and industry depth.
Price Match Gurantee:
We offer the best prices available in the sport of kiting. We’ll even beat the price in most cases, so if you find a better price somewhere, let us know.
We Are Involved In The Kiting Community:
We make strong efforts to attend all the major Kiteboarding events and help support each community. We love to watch new people get into the sport as well. With every event we open up a new passion for a new rider and that is the beauty of kiting.
Long History With Our Vendors:
Because we are one of the original stores, we have built strong, long lasting relationships with all of the kite companies, and have been here to help launch some of the major brands. With that comes a loyalty and quick customer service as our vendors respond immediately to our requests, and handle warranties and after market accessories in a timely manner. Very few shops can make the same statement. We’ve been selling the brands of North, Naish, Cabrinha, Slingshot, Ozone, Ocean Rodeo, Crazyfly, Jimmy Lewis, Nobile, Dakine, Liquid Force, Litewave, GK, NSI and more since 1999.
We are also located close to 6 major kiteboarding companies (about 2 1/2 hrs drive), and know their staff personally. It is this type of relationship that we pride ourselves on, and with that comes a personal touch that can be offered by no other company.
We Ride Everyday And Encourage You To.
We are truly passionate about all things kiting, so whether it’s kiting at our local lakes, snowkiting in the mountains , skate kiting on light wind days, landboarding in the desert, or making trips to the coast for epic waves, we ride everyday and pass that stoke on to you. We love hearing about your sessions too, so feel free to send us pictures and share your story with us, Kite Line.
Thanks For Visiting Kite Line
We hope you enjoy the Kite-Line.Com site and welcome any feedback. We’re looking forward to helping you experience the thrills of kiteboarding, snowkiting, paddle boarding and to be your source for gear.
Cheers,
Michael and the Kite Line Tribe
