Griffin Kiteboarding designs innovative high performance, quality and great value kites with amazing wind ranges, excellent upwind performance and auto relaunch. Ideal for beginners, wave riders, free ride and freestyle. The original designers of the "center less" strut kites and quick switch pulley-less kite bridle system.

Innovative designs

Griffins are designed with a "flat center" canopy and were the FIRST kites designed with the "center less" strut system. This exceptionally innovative design provides increased stability, higher lift for jumping and faster, more predictable steering.

Sustainability

At Griffin Kiteboarding we are acutely aware that all products we design and distribute have an impact on the global and local environments in which we live, work and play. We are dedicated to producing the lowest impact products possible. As such we have implemented a number of initiatives to ensure we meet this goal.

• We have designed all our products to be durable and easily repairable to extend product life. This includes easy to open construction on struts and the leading edge.
• We have a flat system to minimize energy usage in transportation of our goods. This has the added bonus of significantly reducing costs of delivery which we pass onto you as the consumer.
• We use the best quality materials available for durability, repair and performance.
• We engineer the product to ensure the quality of the construction supports the quality of the materials.
• We have a simple = best policy where we only have features on our kites which are functional. We exclude the decorative 'kite fluff' many other brands have. This reduces material inputs per kite and thus kite weight and cost - again we pass the savings onto you.
• We minimize the use of inorganic, toxic or non recyclable materials in our production. This includes minimal screen printing on the canopy.
• We constantly research, test and implement new and better sustainable practices.

Great Value

Griffins are shipped from the factory to your nearest distributor, concentrating on quality and customer service. What you are paying for in some other brands includes shipment via factory > warehouse > distributor > retailer with extra expenses in multiple shipment costs, extra duty and clearance costs, extra markups as the kites change hands and expensive marketing campaigns. Our flatter structure keeps that extra money in your pockets. Go spend it on a more gear or a kiting adventure!
