HQ Powerkites World Tour stop > OBX

The Powerkites.de World-Tour comes to the Outer Banks of North Carolina – famous for wind and the birthplace of flight.

On April 18th we stop at Jockey’s Ridge State Park in Nags Head, North Carolina – the largest natural sand dunes on the East Coast. Located just across the street from the Kitty Hawk Kites flagship store. Here you can test fly all the new power kites on the soft, forgiving sands. Access to the shallow waters of the Albemarle Sound is available behind the park.

That evening we’ll meet for a refreshments and BBQ at the Blue Crab Tavern, courtesy of HQ Kites.

On April 19th the tour continues south to Hatteras Island and the village of Waves, one of the best kite boarding destinations in the country. The best surf on the East Coast can also be found on the Atlantic Ocean side. Kitty Hawk Kites will host us at their new store and kite boarding resort, where miles of shallow waters and constant winds create an amazing flat water riding paradise. An ideal environment to try the HQ NEO and Hydra. Join us for a test ride and deck party.
