While I am in Townsville for the 43rd Tasar Nationals, was great to chat with Nico Parlier and Ricky Leccese on the upcoming Kitefoiling Gold Cup stage, as well as the basics.
Nico is currently tied for the tour lead, and won last year’s final stage here in Townsville. Will he be on top at the end of October? Time will tell.
What is scarier is that I am apparently going to learn how to kitesurf while I am up here!!?
Video includes on board footage, footage from the kite and the foil and drone footage of the last event here (thanks the Chaz Walters!) along with the interview which walks through how it all works, from the kite itself to the latest in foil design.
