TAMPA/LONDON/BERLIN, July, 20th 2010: While Scandinavia is known for its rugged beauty and its great snow in the wintertime it is also known for producing great female competitors in the kiteboarding world – just one of many reasons for KB4girls to target female kiters in Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Finland from August 27-29.
With local rippers Anki Knutsson and Anna Sparre, the KB4girls team around world champion Kristin Boese will have the best possible support to reach out to the girls in Scandinavia and to teach them new skills.
Anki Knutsson says: “I have known Kristin for almost seven years. We have travelled on the PKRA tour together and spent many off-seasons in the same places. To get together with her to organise the KB4girls event in my home country is very special for me. It’s really an inspiration to be able to ride with other girls who push themselves and who understand each other. I really want to share this with the girls back home even if it is just for one weekend. “
The Oeresund Sound will be the perfect location for the KB4girls event since it offers a huge bay with many different spots for different wind directions but also shallow water for easy learning. Based at a camp ground the girls will drive to wherever the conditions in the bay are best and practise new moves under the instructions of Anki, Anna and Kristin all weekend.
Upcoming KB4girls events:
- Fischland, Germany: August 20-22, 2010
- Malmo, Sweden: August 28-29, 2010
- Hood River, USA: September 4, 2010
- Montauk/NY, USA: September 24-26, 2010
- Lancing, UK: October 8-10, 2010
