On the Road with Keahi - Kitesurfing in Bali

Keahi pulling in to some Bali goodness...
So if Keahi De Aboitiz isn't competing in the KSP world kitesurfing tour this week - where is he? 

Well, truth be told - he got a better deal. Rather than fly all the way over to Mauritius, do battle with a heap of other kitesurfers for a couple of mediocre waves - all for no prize money... Keahi hopped on a plane to Bali for a bit of freeriding. It was cheaper, more fun - and it means we all get to see what he's up to! 

With his Hawaiian mate Reo Stevens; the two have spent the last month trekking all over Bali. The exact locations they've been riding are top secret, (we want the locals getting upset!) but they're somewhere around the Tugu and Cangguand areas, as well a couple of the outer islands. When the conditions haven't turned on for kitesurfing, the boys have been surfing - paddling and stand up paddling into some world class waves. Best of all, it's just the two of them - no judges, no competitors and no stress... 

Along with Reo, Keahi's been hanging out with his other mates Patrick Rebstock and Ryland Blakeney, who are all surely releasing their own footage of the past months riding. With all four riders pushing the boundaries of strapless kitesurfing - they're sure to be some pretty special movies.

Stay tuned for updates on when they're released - and check out the video below of Keahi and Reo - ripping it up in Bali. 


Opening in August 2007, Kitepower Australia Queensland, or KPQ, is the newest addition to the Kitepower chain. In September 2011, KPQ moved a few blocks down the road to a newly refurbished shopfront. The move allowed the shop to expand into other watersports like stand-up paddling and wakeboarding, as well as beachwear and toys. Across the road from the store is Pelican park and Bells beach, which are the perfect locations for flying kites and practising all kinds of watersports...
