PODCAST #114:

This week, Yaron Balev, founder of Blade Kites joins host Ryan Riccitelli on the ASnews.net and The Kiteboarder Magazine podcast. Based out of Israel, Yaron will share what inspired him to start a kiteboarding company, why he believes his company is making a difference and what riders can expect from the Blade 2008 product line up including the new Vertigo and Beast kites, along with the new Scalper boards.

Due to the time difference between the US and Israel, this week’s show will be prerecorded but you can still post your questions here and we will ask them for you! The deadline for questions is Wednesday, May 7 by 3pm PST. The interview will be available Thursday evening at http://www.kiteforum.tv, http://www.thekiteboarder.com, and http://www.asnews.net. You can also subscribe to the feed at Itunes and get notified of podcast shows, videos and PDF versions of the magazine as soon as they’re posted online!
