Vanaf komend weekend worden er weer 50.000 mensen verwacht op het jaarlijks festival op Terschelling...... oh nee, verkeerde eiland en verkeerde event

Sylt in Duitsland is de eerste stop voor de KPWT tour dit jaar. De riders lijst ziet er al indrukwekkend uit met vooral een sterk veld voor de dames. Het is natuurlijk nog even afwachten of er ook riders uit het PKRA kamp op komen dagen. Mag het nu wel of toch niet?

Het is voor de Nederlandse en Belgische kiters in ieder geval dichtbij en goed te doen met de auto, bijkomend voordeel voor degene die een beetje Fries kunnen pruttelje, dat kan daar ook.

De prijzenpot is ook goed gevuld en er zijn 4 disciplines opgenomen:

Freestyle, Wave, Course Race en Biggest Kiteloop.

Press release – 21st June 2009

KPWT SEAT Kitesurf World Cup 2009
Kiteboard Pro World Tour – 16th – 21st June 2009

The SEAT KITESURF WORLD CUP has come to an end today due to unfavorable conditions and the Kiteloop discipline was unfortunately not run.
It has been a successful week in Sylt, and the Brand Guides team has contributed largely to this success, and KPWT thanks them for this.

Well done to the local riders, Kristin Boese (GER, BEST), Mario Rodwald (GER, NKB) and Stefan Permien (GER, KITEFACTORY) for their world class performance on the water! A special mention must go to Mito Monteiro (CABO VERDE, F-ONE) and Jan Marcos Rivera (DOM REP, STARKITES) who gave the spectators an exhilarating final in the single elimination Wave Master discipline!

Prize giving commenced on the SEAT stage, which was erected on the beach promenade and began at 15h00.
Results were finalized and riders were presented with their prize money and trophies from the SEAT KITESURF WORLD CUP. Many thanks to all the sponsors for their contribution and support.
This first event on the 2009 tour has been a huge success and we look forward to the upcoming 2nd leg in Tarifa, Spain. The MOVISTAR KITE PRO will start on the 30th June (Registration day) and run until the 5th July 2009.
