Building on our range of paragliding tours in South East Asia, the Indian subcontinent & South America, we are happy to add a number of kite-surfing tours to our quiver from 2012.

South East Asia offers up an enticing selection of pristine kitesurfing spots, all lined with white-sand beaches, arching palm trees and an endless supply of rich cultures and great food experiences. For our tours, we have hand-picked the best up and coming spots in the region. Check out our 'TOUR INFO' section for more info on where we are going and why.

The thermal season is now in full swing in the Gulf of Thailand and the conditions are pumping.

On 1st March 2012, Graham Saunders-Griffiths of Frontiers Kitesurfing and Manuel Derr of 'Team Edus' set out from Bang Saphan National Park on a mission to kite back to Pak Nam Pran - a distance of over 170kms. Our first 'kite bivouac' adventure in Thailand was to take us through two national parks and incredible scenery. Carrying what we needed in the form of hammocks, peanuts and an all-too-essential kite bladder repair kit, the team kited, walked, hitched and begged it's way back to Pak Nam Pran by 3rd March. With finicky winds from Bang Saphan to Prachuap Kiri Khan on days 1 and 2, progress was initially slow. But Day 3 turned out to be an epic one with just under 100kms covered in 4.5 hours - to bring us back to the comfort of an ice-cold beer at the Kitezone at the Beachhouse.
