will it be printed as well if so how do I get it

looks like the link for the subscription Is a download,i want paper!!

Yeah there was freesail and sailboard extra back then. Monthly mags I think. That was the thunderbox reading material when I was a grom. Shiz I must be getting old!

^^^ like me I am hardly ever here

Great to see the positive response. It was interesting reading that thread a while back on the lack of Australian windsurfing mags. I for one am a bit sick of reading the same old stories in every issue of the international mags. Australia has so much diversity and a lot of epic spots that would make for interesting reading. Now we have had a great opportunity pop up so we are running with it!

The first issue is a short one to get the ball rolling - it is currently finishing up with printing. Pretty sure it will be available in a little over a week. Definitely hard copies!
We are working on getting the website updated and fully functional, and there will also be an app with interactive features.

Right now we are collecting content for Issue 2 - please contact me if you have any great pictures or stories that you are keen to share.
Also for any brands/importers/shops that are interested in advertising opportunities please get in touch as well.

Subbed up!

It's past mid June now. Anyone got a copy? Still waiting for mine.

spoiler????....

Hi guys,

Sorry for late reply. Subscribers, your copies were posted today so you should get your copies early next week.
Each of you have received a free edition of Kite Mag as well.
Shops should have their copies by the end of the weekend.
Mags should be in newsagents Australia wide by end of next week.
This mag has gone from idea to product in three months, we have started which is always the hardest thing to do with magazines.
In that time we have received strong subscription sales and fantastic story and image leads for our next edition.
Im stoked that we can publish for this awesome community, please get in touch with your feedback on the mag, (good or bad) we want to hear it all and make the next edition even better for you.
Also big thanks to Al McLeod for working his arse off to make this happen. Also thanks to Laurie for providing this forum so people can get in touch

Thank you

George

Well done George, Al and Ben. Subscribed via the "pocketmags" Windows 8 app and looks great. Also works on android and iphone for the single price. $10.99 for a 4 issue digital subscription is a bargain.

Keep up the good work, and looking forward to a green island story in the next issue!

Stoked you are happy with it James. This is just the beginning... Windsurfing will play a much bigger role in the next edition.
We are after content for the next edition guys, so get in touch georgeiero@gmail.com or contact Al.

Wow, I bet the poleys will be stoked to get the free Kite mag. ^^^

lol.

Waveslave loves to hate. Don't worry, it's just what he does.
Good work for the new mag

Try and keep the vibe positive waveslave, remember this is the first time in 10 years that there has been a locally created magazine.

Wow, 10 years is a very long time. ^^^

But then again ...

During that same period, local windsurfing had never been off the radar screen.

The forum, thanks to seabreeze.com.au, filled that void with ease.

Good luck with the mag.

What's it called again ?

WIND ??

I'll check it out sometime at the local papershop.

Ordered,look forward to having a read
