“This event was all about fun and full of healthy competition as these kids are athletes by nature. The older and more experienced guys shared their knowledge with the smaller kids. Luis Alberto Cruz-STARKITES pro rider who is preparing for PKRA France, placed 1st after throwing down a double handle pass in really low wind on his 11 meter ExA. When asked what his mindset was today, Luis responded, “I relied on experience, my Star Kite, committing to the trick, and riding hard. Luis amped up the younger guys as they strived to reach his level. Luis talked a little bit about how important KB4K is and what it means to the children, “I told them to stay focused. They need to concentrate on kiting. They need to pursue a goal and do something meaningful. And they are and it great to see. It’s great to see the support they get from KB4K and the people involved”. (Paragraph from the KB4K website)

Just behind Luis’ 1st place on the podium came Starkites Rider Felix Antonio (aka Posito) in 2nd place, and Joselito also Starkites Rider in 3rd place!!!
