"At the beach, ads on the sails of kiteboards

Fast Facts

What
Ads placed on kites that tow riders on wakeboards along beaches.

Who
Kite Billboard, headquartered in Largo, Fla.

How it works
Ads are printed on the entire surface of the kites, which tow riders across the water. The kites can also be used to tow wheeled boards over land and snowboards across icy surfaces.

Ad space ranges from 85 square feet to more than 300 square feet, depending on the size of the sail. “Sails are up to 50 feet long by 6 or 7 feet wide,” says president Antonio Martinho.
