Kitepower Australia (QLD) - A little bit about our store
| Opening in August 2007, Kitepower Australia Queensland, or KPQ, is the newest addition to the Kitepower chain. Owner Jon Ashmore managed the Sydney store for two years prior to opening KPQ in the northern suburbs of Brisbane. Jon started flying kites 14 years ago when his brother and sister, Graeme and Nicola, bought his first stunt kite, and can be found in the buggy during winter, on the water in summer and playing with one- and two-line kites all year round. Working with Jon at KPQ is Rhys Porter, who manages the kitesurfing school. With over 600 hours teaching experience, Rhys leads a team of tallented instructors who are well known in Brisbane for providing the most effective and high quality training in the industry. Dave Atkinson has been teaching for the last two summers, and with his extensive windsurfing and surfing background has a unique teaching style which has proven to be very effective for all students. Lyatte Peach, our resident chick instructor isn't afraid to tell you what you're doing wrong, and her bubbly teaching style is well suited to both girls and guys. Between these three instructors, you're in safe and experienced hands.
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. |
