Welcome to Coastal Wind Sports, Brunswick, Georgia, United States. At Coastal Wind Sports, Brunswick, Georgia, we like to fly traction kites and drive kite buggies. We fly or drive just about everything we sell so that we feel more comfortable talking about our products. For our local customers (Southeast Georgia, Northeast Florida) we are happy to meet on the beach and set up demos for any of our products. We almost always have a demo model on hand of everything we sell (but not all sizes).
If you haven't tried traction kites (a.k.a "power kites"), you should. They are a lot of fun and provide a great workout. Our smaller 2-line foils are inexpensive, easy to fly and can provide great enjoyment with good pull for an upper body workout. Our full sized four-line kites can pack a lot of energy and really drag you around for an "Xtreme" workout.
A four-line kite gives you complete control. You can drive it through the sky to generate power and lift, you can stop it, back it up and land it wherever you choose. They are pretty intuitive to fly and just take some practice. Talk to us about the right kite for you, because the wrong kite in the wrong conditions can hurt you. We can set you up so you have fun and not frustration.
One of the best ways to put the power of a tration kite to work is in a buggy. Kite buggies can routinely achieve speeds of over two times the speed of the local wind. So with a 10 knot breeze, you're doing 25 mph, but with your butt four inches off the ground, it feels like 50! Buggies can tack and reach accross the wind and even point up-wind, so you are not walking back to your starting point. They are not hard at all to drive, once you know how to fly the kite.
If you want to take a kite to the water and take up kiteboarding or kitesurfing, we can help there too. We have all the gear you'll need and can hook you up with Golden Isles Kiteboarding for professional instruction.
