The foil setup for summer time!
Issue 115
For more than a decade, Matchu Lopes has been one of the defining figures in strapless kiteboarding. Alongside Airton Cozzolino and Mitu Monteiro, he helped turn a small Cape Verdean scene into a global movement, pushing surfboard riding to the very front of the sport. Now based on Boa Vista, where he runs a Duotone Pro Centre and spends more time at home, Matchu reflects on the journey that took him from a small island to the world stage, and why wave riding still means everything.
Issue 115
Le Barcarès: A spot where innovation and skill take control. Records are broken, and riders push the limits of Big Air kiteboarding. This event is known as one of the most extreme in the sport for a reason. Lords of Tram 2026 was an edition that had heads turning and questions being asked.
Issue 115
In a sport driven by innovation, it’s easy to get lost in the noise of new releases and big marketing campaigns. Roode Boards has taken a different route. No hype, no rush, just a clear focus on building something that works, and doing it properly from the ground up. The result is a brand that’s arrived quietly, but is starting to make a serious impact.
Issue 114
Rou reflects on 26 years of chasing wind and waves, and on a winter session in Pembrokeshire that reminded him exactly why he fell in love with kiteboarding in the first place. It is a story about risk, reward, and those rare moments when everything lines up: wind direction, swell, sunshine, and a little touch of magic.

Summer in the UK might usually mean light winds and foiling sessions, but when a massive storm rolled through recently, it lit up the beaches and highlighted just how extreme our sport has become.
