There are no "physical" kite shops in Calgary. There are a couple of online kiteshops that are based in and near Calgary.

www.soulsessionsports.com/

www.kiteguys.ca/ (Airdrie, just north of Calgary)

www.mullerwindsports.com/feb05/kites_main.htm (Cochrane, just northwest of Calgary)

You might have some wiggle depending on your exact travel plans. I have had Angus ship stuff to my sister's place, when I was visiting for a few days. If the order had gotten really hosed, I could have just had my sister hold it until the next visit.

Not as much latitude if you are staying at a hotel, but if you can work the delivery window close enough with some assurances of delivery, it's still doable.

ATB,

I know about Pipeline in Edmonton, I was hoping there might be something similiar in or around Calgary. It's not that I'm looking for anything in particuliar, just wanted to see what's out there "in person" so to speak.

Mood: They're ALL good ideas. Right up until they become BAD ideas.

Mueller might be your best bet. I've been out there and they do carry some semblance of an inventory. Jeff at Soulsession can get you anything but I don't know what he keeps "in stock". I heard a rumor that the Kiteguys are here at NABX so they might be closed down? Don't quote me on that.
