Welcome to Kite Forge
Kites tempered on fields around the world…
Browse around for a wealth of information about new kite design(s) from 31-time US national champion John Barresi, each designed to work not only for the various disciplines he enjoys, but also to be almost universally adaptable for pilots of nearly any caliber. While these kites are available to the general public, they were not created as “products”, they were each designed to fulfill a level of performance and accessibility for our own pilots – what you see here is exactly what John flies, no mods, no tweaks.
Please say hello to our sponsored pilots on Team KiteLife, appearing at festivals throughout the year.

Built for our most active customers, the L3 Clips are designed for use at the three Sync Bridle points which may see wear on the leading edge material of either the Djinn or Djuice with aggressive use. Once installed, the leading edge spar can still slide through easily with the bridle and leading edge material fully protected in those areas. These will also fit most other quad line kites with similar bridle attachments (frequently the center point). Check out the installation tutorial below!
