42 EXTREME CHALLENGES Kitefoiling Around Sardinia: Enrico Giordano and Luca Marcis flying around Sardinia www.K iteA roundSArdiniA .com

pare their bodies with sessions of kettlebell, trx, slack line, stretching, balance and functional training sessions to replicate as much as possible the movements made in the water. As for the equipment, the two athletes will use F-One standard kites and boards, in other words nothing extreme, radical or specific competing material by industry brands. A choice based on and inspired by safety reasons, ease of use, but also to create a format replicable by the average rider who may get inspired by these two and next year attempt the challenge. Noteworthy the use of pump kites instead of the typical foil kites, a counter-trend choice in the hydrofoil scenario, dictated by the higher versatility and safety features of inflatable kites, their ease of handling and immediate relaunch from the water and the great popularity. During the Kitefoiling Around Sardinia 2017 Enrico and Luca can be followed live on the dedicated website and social media channels of the project, they may also be contacted directly by newspapers, radio stations and TV to tell live the emotions of their experience. Which no doubt will be many. Kitesoul Magazine, as media partner of this amazing challenge, is their number one fan. Enjoy the flight guys!
