BEST Kiteboarding:
Everything you want to know!
Quality, Reputation, Pricing, Warrantee, Gear, etc.
"BEST KITES", the Brand sold by "Best Kiteboarding"
In 2004, Best took the Kiteboarding world by storm. In only a year and a half, Best
Kite
went from new kid on the block to the worlds largest kite manufacturer by
providing
excellent kite gear, outstanding customer service, an un-beatable
satisfaction guarantee,
and rock bottom pricing.
Today: Best holds the crown for the most popular kites on the water.
Outstanding performance, and at the same time great prices.
Exceptional Products,
Exceptional Service and Exceptional Prices
There's a lot more to a kite than just price... Ask yourself, why didn't Monkey
kites or China
kites monopolize the market like Best did over the last three years? They sold
kites even
cheaper than Best... Then there are some new brands this year with Best-like
pricing, will
they be around next year or will they fail like others have over the last few
years? How will
those brands satisfy your warranty claims when they only manufacture 100-200
kites per
month? Best manufactures 2,500-4,500 kites per month depending on seasonality
and
every single customer with a warranty claim in our 3 1/2 year history has been
more than
satisfied.
Our customers don't want "cheap kites"... Our customers want excellent kites at
a great
price. Best has always delivered on that. In fact, Best's corporate mantra is
very simple...
Exceptional products, exceptional service and
exceptional prices
There are kites out there that are less expensive than Best, always have been,
always will
be because most "business people" in the kite industry make the mistake that one
can
actually compete on price alone. You can't. Not in this industry and not in any
industry.
Most never see or read this page on the site, but it's worth a look...

People buy Best because they know they are getting the best available technology
and
performance at an amazing price. And they buy with confidence, because they know
they
can return any product for their money back or exchange, even if their dog eats
it...

Friday November 11th , An interview with Best Kites designer, Peter Stiewe,
was
posted to the Best Kite Forum.

The
Company partners Shannon, Alex, and Jeff
Best Kites was formed by 3 partners: The Famous wakeboarding
Pro
"Shannon Best", The Wall Street financial giant "Alex Shogren", and Contest Winning
Kiteboarding Expert Jeff Beige. Each of these guys is more than capable of running a
successful Kiteboarding
company on their own, but as a team... they've proven they
have the power to reshape an entire
industry.
Their logo: The Flying fish, is showing up everywhere. If you
haven't scene it in your
town, you will!
Best Customer Service and Support: The Team at best is beyond
outstanding.
Yes, their are great, but thats only 1/2 the reason for their success.
These guys have assembled a team of true professionals that understand how
to take care of their most valuable asset... YOU, the customer and rider.
Over the past several months I've had the pleasure to get to know and be
assisted
by the Team including:
JeffB, JeffG, Alecia, Lia, Sean, Steve S, Troy, Sue, Billy G, and others.
Any Business
owner in their right mind would kill to have a team like this!
And lets not forget the master designers:
Thomas: Board shaper
Peter: Kite Designer
These guys are the best of the best.

integrated "5-line" Bar
The Best Reputation:
Many Retailer are just a wee bit "tweeked" because BEST
Kiteboarding sells direct via
their website and also through only selected shops. A "not too
enlightened" shop owner
from Corpus Christi, Texas called me a all upset about the Best Kites and
this website,
basically saying "stay
out of my town" afraid that the readers of this website,
like you, might learn that its stupid to spend $1400 on just "1" common kite from
North, Naish, Slingshot, Wipika, Cabrinha, Etc, When
you can get "2" Best Kites
(Nemi, Yarga, Tempest) for around the same price. Well, now you
know! No excuses.
If do
your home- work you can save BIG, and spend the extra cash on that special someone,
on a vacation, or on lessons with me. ; ) Riders "not" associated with the Kite Industry
are
psyched about being able to buy sweet kites while saving hundreds of dollars.
Consider the price, quality, service, 30-day
guarantee, and
decide for yourself.
Kite Forums: You don't have to look far to find idiots who
Bash any brand that
they are not associated with.
The kite forums are unfortunately infected with too many negative,
over-opinionated
self-proclaimed experts.
I suggest avoiding spending much time on
kite-forums and
ONLY using them to find
valuable web-links for Repair shops, Schools, weather, and travel.
If you like the Jerry Springer show, you'll love the entertainment on the
forums.
Ok, maybe a bit exaggerated.
If you decide to surf the forums here a 2 good ones
Kiteforum.com
Bestkiteboarding.com
Bottom line:
Promoting BEST kites is "Not" about money. Its
ALL about You and Stoke!
Being an instructor and rider myself, I am able to ride, and profit from
any brand I choose
to promote. Over the last 7 years, I've owned and sold:
Cabrinha, Naish, Wipika, Peter
Lynn, Concept-Air, Advance, Best, Slingshot, & Airush (to name a few).
After extensively
testing the kites by BEST, using them for my personal riding and using them
in our school, the final word is... YEAH!
Finally a company focusing on the
needs of the average
customer...
Performance, Design, durability, Price, Customer Service, & Satisfaction
Guarantee,
these kites have it all,
including the Kitemare.com stamp of
approval. Best Kites now make up my
personal kite quiver.
THE BEST
GUARANTEE

and PAY for shipping. or if you're
awake....
(2) "Order via KITEMARE.com"
and get FREE Shipping!
Quality and Design: High quality cutting edge designs by Peter
Stewie.
All of
the kites in production are much more similar than different.
If a retailer tells you anything negative about these kites, its because they don't sell them,
and thus, don't profit if you buy them.
Supporting a local shop? Yes and No, If the
cost difference is $10 or $20 bucks
to get an item from a local shop, and they're into kiteboarding and very
knowledgeable,
If their prices are good. Sure, why not.
On the other hand, If the price
difference is $100
or more,
use the savings to buy an airline ticket and fly away for a windy
adventure!
Either way, if you're happy, we're happy.
"Only" support shops who's owners
are real kiteboarders with a passion for the sport an avoid the posers who only
care
about you plastic in your pocket.
