It’s a wrap on Day 5 of the GKA Freestyle Super Grand Slam here in Ilha Do Guajiru and we have got our Superkite Champions 2020!
In slightly lighter winds on this final day of the competition, the focus of the judges was on quality and attention to detail when it came to the execution of the tricks. The level of riding at this event was just out of this world with some of the highest overall scores ever achieved in a competition, and tricks never landed in a contest before.

Here are the official results:
Men’s final
1st Maxime Chabloz (Switzerland) 36.73
2nd Erick Anderson (Brazil) 34.33
3rd Manoel Soares (Brazil) 30.43
4th Juan Rodríguez (Colombia) 26.53

No heats were run today, but we have winners nonetheless – winners in the waiting game for wind, that is. The ladies were more than ready to battle it out in semi-finals and finals today, but it wasn’t meant to be. Wind was too light to provide good conditions for our world class athletes, so after calling the first possible start for 9.30am but having to postpone the competition time and time again, the wind decided not to show up and the race direction decided not to run the competition to...

Athletes had a very early start today, as the competition had to be scheduled according to the tides of the lagoon to ensure optimal riding conditions. First up were the men, and they were rewarded for getting up early with ideal conditions, flat water and steady wind so most competitors were on 11 to 13m kites. Here’s what went down in Hura Beach today: youngest competitor of the event Davi Ribeiro placed second in his first heat of the day, and it really showed that the 12-year-old Brazil...
