What is Kiteboarding?
There is a sport that is like surfing, wakeboarding, and flying all at once. If you’ve ever been to Pismo Beach on a windy day, you will see over two dozen kiteboarders in the water or doing tricks high above it. Most of these riders are ordinary people that are simply addicted to this amazing extreme sport called kiteboarding.
Kiteboarding uses the wind to combine the aspects of surfing, snowboarding, wakeboarding, and windsurfing into one extreme ocean sport. The kite, anywhere from 6-20 square meters, powers the rider through the water. The kite will have either 4 or 5 lines up to 27 meters long that connect to a control bar, which the rider pushes and pulls to control the kite in any direction. The bar hooks into the rider’s harness, which is most often worn around the waist. A board similar to a wakeboard or surfboard enables the rider to fly over the water.

So, you have your notebook on your back, and you know it’ll be dry despite the rain all day. But why didn’t you stick some spare shoes in with the dry gear? You hate having squelchy shoes at the end of the trip and you kick yourself for forgetting – there would have been plenty of room for them! Never mind, you tell yourself that as long as you can get these wet clothes changed out of and stashed in the bag away from the computer, soggy feet are the most you’ll have to worry about.
The Noatak uses a simple and well-proven roll-seal closure. You can roll it over as many times as you like but we reckon 3 times is all you need to give you a 100% waterproof seal.
The Noatak is extraordinarily adaptable to suit a wide range of different lifestyles, tasks and pursuits. If you're going out walking, biking or paddling it makes a comfortable, lightweight daypack. If you're going sailing you can use it as a stash bag, or as an emergency grab bag.
It has two internal pockets - so you can keep wet stuff and dry stuff separate inside the same bag. The proven roll-seal closure forms a simple carry handle. It's also supplied with straps that turn it into a daypack - and in this mode it's a really comfy fit for those of us with narrow shoulders.
Comes in two colors: High-Visibility Marine Safety Orange or Urban Grey
