Fortaleza, Brazil has been the ideal location for this second edition of the GKA Hydrofoil Freestyle World Championship 2021.
It was another perfect day for the GKA Hydrofoil World Cup in Fortaleza, as the wind was pumping at 20-22 knots and the top hydrofoilers in the World were ready to put on a show for the completion of this competition.
GKA Hydrofoil World Cup Fortaleza returns for the second consecutive year, as the top hydrofoil freestyle riders have gathered for this event here on the shores of Ceara’s capital city.
The final GKA Freestyle World Cup of the season is now complete, and in Cumbuco we crowned our new 2021 GKA Freestyle World Champions - Mikaili Sol and Arthur Guillebert.
Finals day in Cumbuco, Brazil, was nothing short of spectacular! The top riders in the World gave a breathtaking performance for both the Men’s and Women’s finals. The battle for the Cumbuco podium positions was a fierce one, which saw the athletes give their all on the water.
It was a rainy and stormy start as we headed into Day Three of action in Cumbuco, Brazil. The full Men’s and Women’s Eliminations were completed in 16-18 knot winds, showcasing the World’s very best freestyle talent, and with a new World Champion crowned.
The riders were pumped and ready to go for an early start during day 2 of the GKA Freestyle World Cup Cumbuco, with approximate wind speeds of 14 to 17 knots.
The GKA Kite World Tour is excited to be back in Brazil for the final Freestyle stop of the year.
After the last GKA Kite-Surf World Cup event in Dakhla, Morocco we caught up with our new 2021 Kite-Surf World Champions Peri Roberts and James Carew to find out how they feel after claiming their first World Championship titles and what it took to get there.
It was a long wait, but Dakhla delivered once again and by 4.30pm the wind kicked in, and the remainder of the competition was completed.
