Living far from the ocean in Bulgaria, Nicola Abadjiev doesn’t let that stop him. He’s been consistent on the tour in the last couple of years, placing in the top ten more than a few times and progressing steadily. Strapless freestyle is very much his specialty but he’s strong in the waves too and he’s an absolute shredder on a surfboard without a kite funnily enough. He’s still only 17 years-old and he’s got a bright future on the GKA Kite-Surf World Tour.
