St Martin

Saint Martin isn’t your typical kite destination. It’s an island where two cultures sit side by side, where conditions shift from flat water to reef breaks in a single session, and where the experience goes far beyond the time you spend on the water. From the steady trade winds of Orient Bay to the raw energy of the outer reefs, and from long French lunches to late nights on the Dutch side, it’s a place that delivers far more than just good kiting. For Theo Demanez, it’s home, and even after travelling the world, it’s still one of the most complete destinations he knows.

The KGB is the next step on from a back to blind with an air pass. Much like the excitement of a Blind Judge 3, the add on is the final 180 of rotation so that you land heel side, therefore completing the move. It’ll have you laughing on the inside for weeks once you claim it, as that final...

Shifty 5

The constant, sometimes seemingly small progressions in kiting are often the most rewarding challenges. In freestyle the possibilities seem endless, moving from a blind landing with surface pass, to an air pass blind judge and then adding that extra bit for a blind judge three and then a five and then a seven – one can but dream or admire...
