As the wind line finally reached the shore at Valdevaqueros, the Kite-Surf World Tour strapless freestyle riders put on a late afternoon show on Thursday at the Jeep Tarifa Pro. Although the winds were light at around 15 – 18 knots and dropped for the last couple of rounds, the competition has reached the last 16, so riders can already take points away. There are however still three days to go and the Tarifan crowd are keen for more action as this is the original home of strapless freestyle competition!

Finally, the GKA Air Games kicked off on Wednesday 27th June after a wind-less first event in Leucate! A light Poniente wind was boosted by an afternoon thermal with conditions around 18 knots. Of course this is only the starting wind speed for this tour for big tricks, BUT we’re looking for the most all round twin-tip riders in varied conditions. Look out for standout performances from Jesse Richman, Posito Martinez, Liam Whaley, Carlos Mario and more!
