Wow Best you lost some respect on this one. Sorry but I just read this on the snowkiting forum and I think you guys need to be called out on this one.

I'd care if I would ever buy a kite from them. If this how they do business...

Motz,
What the f*** are you taking about..Respect? Best has no respect. Just look what they put their poor models and team riders through. Come to think of it, I bet the videos are fakes as well. No bunch of kiters could possibly have that much fun doing what they love to do.

Best marketing department:
1. Focus on pics of hot women instead of product :thumb:
2. Childish acronyms for products/features (BFK, ASS) :lame1:
3. Stealing pictures off the web and photoshop-ing their products onto them :nob:

Idiots....

check that out, thats some funny shit, not only does that snowkiter still ride in the same clothes that he had two years ago, but the cheap son of a bitch couldn't even be bothered to take his new sponsors to a different location for their photoshoot.....

at the time the images were first posted best didnt have any snow kite pictures with the new tempests on them because at the time we tested them, the kites only came in the old yarga colour schemes, so we faked the pictures.

not wanting to 'claim' anything, the decision was made not to spend anytime doing the images and just slap some new kites on them, so everyone could see them for what they were.( the ozone one was a bit of a misstake).
