European Formula KiteMontpellier, France

The Festikite 2021 – European Formula Kite just closed on Sunday 12 September in Montpellier.

It was the first biggest event, attracting 91 men and 40 women from 29 countries and five continents. It was the first international event for the start to the Paris 2024 Games, the start of the Olympic program.

Despite the fact that there were two days without wind, most of our riders made it to the next steps (Gold Flight and Silver Flight). In addition, Maxime, Lauriane and Lorenzo made it to the semi-finals and finals to fight for the title.

Big congrats to all of our top-notch riders!
