PODCAST #129:

In just two years, Eclipse Kiteboarding has grown from a start up company of two guys with a dream to a legitimate player in the kiteboarding world. Founders Dimitri Maramenides and Chris Cousins have worked hard to build their brand and products and for 2009 are rolling out a new kite and boards, along with their next generation Nano and Thruster kites.

What changed and what didn’t? What can current users expect from the next gen kites? Are they any improvements or advancements on the 09 control bar? What is being added to the Eclipse line for 2009 and how do these products fit within the current offerings from the company?

 

Always entertaining and a lot of fun, join The Kiteboarder Magazine and ASNews.net this Thursday evening for a live interview with Dimitri and Chris from their new digs at Kitty Hawk Kites’ new mega center in Avon, North Carolina (Outer Banks).
