Overcoming crippling dyslexia, Don Montague has become one of the chief innovators in the action sports space. A pioneering windsurfer and kitesurfer, his bizarre idea for a kite-powered sailboat eventually caught the attention of Sergey Brin and Larry Page, who became the founding investors in a company dedicated to creating a new energy source. Later this Summer, Montague and a small team will attempt to set a speed record sailing a kite-powered 60-foot trimaran from San Francisco to Hawaii. But the goal is bigger than that. By showcasing the benefits of kite power, Montague and his team hope to paint a future in which kites help power our energy grid.
