Situated on the east coast of Gran Canara, there are consistent wind and wave conditions at Playa de Vargas, one of Gran Canaria’s windiest kiting spots! In summertime we can be looking at 30 – 40 knots, which is why we’re looking forward to the first ‘open format’ freestyle event of the year – The GKA Freestyle World Cup Gran Canaria 2019.
Click here to head to the official event page where all updates will be found over the coming weeks.
The race for the Qatar Airways GKA Kite-Surf World Championship title is set to hot up when the tour returns to Morocco for a mid-season showdown in Dakhla’s long right-hand point-break.
When? From the 29 September to 6 October
