KITESURF MAGAZINE: French-Mexican Adventure

Kitesurf Magazine from France is the first kitesurfing publication in the world, having been in circulation since late 1990′s, when this new extreme sport first went mainstream. Every year Hugo Badaroux, the magazine’s editor-in-chief, chooses a different country to conduct new kiteboarding gear tests and to explore new international locations suitable for riding. For 2011, the location of choice was Yucatan Peninsula in Mexico and the magazine team based itself in Tulum for a month of fun in the sun. In collaboration with local kiteboarding school Ocean Pro Kite, the magazine’s crew and riders (including French female racing champion Caroline Adrien) explored spots in and around Tulum, Sian Ka’an, Xel-Ha, Punta Allen, Cancun, Isla Holbox and Rio Lagartos. The results and opinions of the French-Mexican kitesurfing adventure will be published in the magazine’s special 2011 Tests issue.
