Ein Event wie das King of the Air ist natürlich nicht komplett ohne Nick Jacobsen!
There’s one thing you can expect from Nick Jacobsen, and that’s that you never know what to expect when he turns up and gets his kite in the air.
Last year, and the year before, he was one of the only riders who opted to use foot straps instead of full wakeboard bindings, resulting in his all-new mega loop one footers being not only as big and powerful as the other riders’ loops, but they were also a fresh take on the epic trick.
The 2013 King of the Air final proved one bridge too far for Nick, and the gruelling nature of the competition format saw the impossibly fit and tirelessly energetic, Jesse Richman become the only man to outlast Nick. A livewire, unpredictable, extremely capable and totally fearless. Nick brings a unique vibrancy to the water.
He has shown that Red Bull King of the Air is totally open to interpretation and inspiration through his never say die attitude and totally out of the box approach.
