Paulino Pereira joins the GKA Judge Team

For those who don’t know Paulino, he’s been competing on the GKA Kite World Tour in the Kite-Surf discipline for four full seasons. Whilst competing in 2019 Paulino opened a kite school in Portugal Costa da Caparica, Bela Vista Beach. Since then he has been slowly moving towards a different goal – spending more time managing his school and focusing on the media side of kitesurfing. During the event in Sylt, we caught up with the multi-talented man to ask what pushed him to join the GKA team.
