BOARDRIDING MAUI
Parawings and Strutless Kites Designed on Maui
BRM created the parawing category in 2024. It was the latest in a longer arc of innovation. More than a decade earlier, BRM invented the sport's first strutless kite, which came to define a segment of kitefoiling.
A lifelong passion for windsports led us to create the parawing. For us, it was the fulfillment of our tow-in surf-foiling dreams. For downwind foiling, the parawing created its fastest-growing new category.
The S3 single skin is the latest generation — extending range, upwind, and comfort
The sport’s first strutless kite; unmatched level of responsiveness, depower, and drift, fine-tuned over 14 years.

What Riders are Saying
“The parawing has really opened up new opportunities to have fun on the water. As a coach, I have helped a lot of people get into downwinding and the parawing is so far the best way to find success in your downwinding journey. Super stoked on the new BRM parawing, it is more stable, easier to fly, and has a better wind range!”

"I have been addicted to water sports since I was 10 years old and parawing foiling is literally the most fun I’ve ever had on the water! The ability to surf wave after wave, effortlessly stowing and redeploying the parawing is surreal. Bought my first Cloud kite quiver in 2018, followed by the wings, and now the parawings! Greg is a brilliant designer and I am always stoked to try his latest creations!"

"The BRM parawing is truly a game changer for foiling. It represents a dream realized—a wing that you can effortlessly pack away, enabling you to harness the ocean's energy unassisted. Mastering it in the waves or during downwind sessions is an art form, and once you unlock that skill, there’s no turning back. I’m incredibly stoked to be on BRM equipment!"
