About Second Wind Sail Surf & Kite

Second Wind Sail Surf & Kite in Kahului, HI, offers a comprehensive inventory spanning kiteboarding, windsurfing, SUP, and accessories, including new and used equipment. Customers consistently praise the staff for being exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable about local conditions, and providing excellent service, often noting great pricing on gear and rentals. This shop is ideal for anyone needing expert advice, quality rentals, or competitively priced equipment, ensuring a supportive experience for all skill levels.

The Good

Customers consistently praise the staff for being extremely friendly, knowledgeable, professional, and helpful, often going above and beyond (e.g., assisting with complex equipment installation or shipping). The shop offers a wide variety of high-quality new and used gear (for kiteboarding, windsurfing, SUP, etc.) at great prices, often beating online competitors. Specific instructors like Troy received high praise for patient and effective teaching. Rental equipment is frequently noted as being new or in excellent condition, and the location near Kanaha Beach is convenient.

Things to Consider

One significant complaint centers on the kiteboarding rental policy, which requires a mandatory, paid one-hour skill verification session ($95) that cannot be counted as a lesson, involving a cumbersome process of meeting an instructor off-site, using their gear, and returning to the store afterward just to gain rental permission. Additionally, one reviewer noted that rental harness lines were severely worn out and needed immediate replacement, despite otherwise excellent gear condition.
