KristinThe first kite racing event of its class in Puerto Rico, the Caribbean Kite Racing Championship took place July 9-11 with participants from Argentina, Brazil, Turkey, France and the United States. The IKA sanctioned event awarded $10,000 in prize money and 410 IKA ranking points. The conditions for racing were outstanding, with warm flat water and daily winds constantly blowing above 20 mph. The short course, multi-lap format was fast and furious, bringing exciting racing to the spectators lining the sea wall and offering an exciting alternative to typical long-leg races.
The first day featured some of the world’s best course racers and talented local foil boarders going head to head for six three-lap races. At the end of the day, Cabrinha’s Damien Leroy took the lead, followed by Adam Koch, then Julien Kerneur and local Phil Morstad from KitesurfPR, who placed fourth during his first kite racing event. On day two, a fun new fun category called Weekend Warriors brought 26 local kiters together, many of whom had not raced before, to learn kite racing basics from Puerto Rican Olympic Windsurfer, KitesurfPR owner and co-organizer of the event, Karla Barrera.
By the third day, wind conditions had changed dramatically, forcing competitors to think quickly and select the right equipment. After a total of 13 races, Damien Leroy had a strong point advantage over the other competitors, securing his lead and giving him the title of new Caribbean Kite Racing Champion. Adam Koch followed in second place, and Julien Kerneur took third place. To learn more about future kitesurfing events in Puerto Rico please check the Puerto Rico Kitesurfing Association website.
