Cabarete Kiteboarding World Cup 2010

From June 16-20, Cabarete was once again the host for the Kiteboarding World Cup. Beautiful caribbean weather and good consistent wind made sure that we could see an amazing event full of action.  More than 20 nationalities made their way to Cabarete to test their skills against the world’s best kiteboarders and agains some of the very good local riders.

The two „Dutchies“ Kevin Langree and Youri Zoon showed amazing action and technical tricks but in the end local hero Ariel Cornel could win the event in an exciting final vs. Kevin Langree. Ariel nearly landed all his tricks, had a bit more power and execution in his tricks then Kevin and could claim the title. A large crowd of Dominican’s rushed to greet Corniel on the beach, lifting him in the air, carrying him like a king. Corniel is the second professional rider to ever win a second title here in Cabarete, once in 2007 and 2010. Congratualtions!!
