Should we be worried about the growth of wing foiling? Are lots of kiters making the switch? Is it going to take over kitesurfing? In this feature, Rou Chater dives into decades of water time to ask: Is kitesurfing being replaced, or is this just the latest wave in our sport’s evolution? Let’s find out!

For many riders, a trip to Brazil is an annual ritual, a pilgrimage to consistent wind, buttery lagoons, and good vibes.

The Lords of Tram 2025 in Le Barcarès was pure chaos—in the best way. With 60-knot gusts - this was Big Air at its most extreme. Andrea Principi stole the show (and the event title), while Lorenzo Casati locked in his World Champion crown. On the women’s side, Mikaili Sol made a legendary comeback, claiming both the event win and her eighth world title. From wipeouts to world champs, this year’s Lords of Tram was one for the books.

There is something profoundly satisfying in kicking buckets of spray, regardless of sports. Whether it be fanning deep powder on a mountain, annihilating the lip of a wave, chucking dirt on a bike or walling a slalom ski around a buoy, the inner kid in all of us can’t resist it and the ensuing look back to check, regardless of how mind-blowingly awesome it felt. Pushing against water, generating your prism, bending light, making rainbows, or simply soaking someone on the beach – the fun is ours. Who doesn’t get excited at the thought?
