High-air has become the trademark of kiteboarding. This has lured many athletes from windsurfing, wakeboarding, and snowboarding over to the kite. The average rider can get 20 feet into the air and nail a great landing without too much difficulty.

once you are proficient and have your timing correct it is possible to get even higher than that, search for videos of ruben lenten or aaron hadlow kitelooping on youtube, they sometimes reach around 20m!!!  A good rider can reach 12-15m when very powered and using a small kite.
