WAKA Goes Global: Where to Get a Glide This Summer

The Glide is going global. Boards are landing in Canada and Europe, the US shelves are full, and the southern hemisphere is stocked for summer. Here's where things stand around the world, coast to coast — for whenever you're ready.

It's been a long road to this map. What started as one folded board in the boot of a rental car is now a container at a time, crossing oceans to warehouses on four continents. Europe and Canada are landing now; the US, New Zealand and Australia are stocked and ready to ship. No rush from us — just a board ready whenever you are.

Pre-order now — the shipping's on us

Canada, this is a big one. For the first time you can order direct: no cross-border runaround, no surprise duties, no US-dollar exchange to puzzle over. Pre-order today and we'll cover the freight, full stop. Your Glide ships from our Montreal warehouse the moment boards land in late June.

Want to put your hands on one first? 30Noeuds, just outside Montreal, is now our first official Canadian dealer — a proper milestone for us, and for the Canadian foil scene.

The wait is over

To everyone who's emailed, DM'd, and patiently asked "when?" — the wait is over. Pre-orders are open right now across our EU and UK stores, and we'll cover pre-order shipping on every single one. A container is already at sea, bound for our EU warehouse, with boards arriving late July.

This first run is deliberately small, so if a particular size has your name on it, choose early. Reserve now and your Glide ships from within Europe the day it lands — no customs limbo, no waiting on a parcel from across the Atlantic.

In stock and ready to ride

Stateside, it's simple: the boards are here. Greenhat Kiteboarding and MACkite are fully stocked and shipping today. The popular sizes move quickly, so if you've got one in mind, don't sit on it too long.

We're also stoked to welcome Windance in Hood River, Oregon — our newest dealer and demo centre for the Columbia River Gorge, with boards on hand to ride before you buy. In the Pacific Northwest, or plotting a trip to the Gorge? Go and fly one.

To our friends down under

New Zealand and Australia — stock is tight in both regions right now. If a Glide has been on your mind through the cooler months, this is the moment to sort it: get set over the southern winter and be on the water for the first warm days of spring.
