THE KITESOUL CORRESPONDENT Michelle Sky Hayward, amongst the VIPs as our reporter Michelle Sky Hayward is a 25-year-old professional kitesurfer. She lives in Cape Town, South Africa with her husband Neil. She is passionate about kitesurfing but besides that, she enjoys going to the gym, spending time at the beach, travelling and of course writing. This is what she had to say about her experience reporting at the King of the Air: I had an amazing time reporting at the Red Bull King of the Air! Kitesoul is a great magazine to work for and it allowed me to gain VIP media access during the event. This way, I could meet some of the riders and people in the media and I got to have the best view! The conditions were perfect, the event is well run and the whole vibe was electric. This is a world-class event and I was so happy to be able to experience it first hand.
