Let the Best Girls keep you warm through those cold winter months
The first ever Best Girl Calendar is now available, and what’s more it even comes with a ‘behind the scenes DVD’ including the making of the Best Girls Calendar shot entirely on location in Cumbuco, Brazil during this year’s Best Fest .
Throughout the summer, we went on a worldwide model search for fun, athletic girls who wanted to represent Best Kiteboarding by becoming the new Best Girls. The winners participated in a 5 day long photo shoot with renowned professional fashion photographer Michael Williams and from those amazing photographs we have compiled the 2011 Best Girls Calendar.
Our Best Girls traveled from all over the world to take part in the photoshoot, plus we had a lucky local winner from the Best Fest Bikini contest join us for the week. The lovely ladies that grace the pages of this calendar are Jelena Kudrjavtseva (Estonia), Deonna Marie (USA), Brittany Martinez (USA), Geórgia Simão (Brazil) and Nine Time World Kiteboarding Champion Kristin Boese (Germany), I’m sure over the months you’ll come to like them all as much as we did in Brazil.
As a member of Best’s International Pro Team, Kristin was not only working on the Best Girl Calendar while in Brazil, she was busy shooting pictures of the 2011 Best Kiteboarding lineup as well as taking time out to teach all the girls how to kiteboard. In addition to her duties as a team rider and international fashion icon, Kristin has been traveling around the world promoting KB4girls, a clinic motivating more women to learn how to kite and accelerate their skills. It was great for the newest Best Girls to bond with Kristin through the photo shoot and to receive personal instruction from her at the same time. Each one of them had a blast learning the basics, and Lena was even up and riding by the end of the week! They really were able to see what it takes to be a true Best Girl!
