The discipline “Kite-Surf” is a combined discipline format that aims to find the most complete surfboard rider. The championship is contested through a series of pure wave events, pure strapless freestyle events and mixed events over a season.
The male and female rider with the most points at the end of the season (allowing for any possible event discard allowances if there are more than five events) will be the World Champions.

Today our athletes came together in solidarity to support the Moroccan community who are still suffering from the consequences of the recent earthquake. The entire kite-surf and wingfoil community stand behind Morocco in support and solidarity. Via the link in our bio you can find more information about how you can support Morocco during this time.
