GKA Kite-Surf World Cup Cape Verde 2024 | Highlights

The inaugural event of the 2024 Qatar Airways GKA Kite World Tour marked the beginning of the kitesurfing season with the first World Cup. Ponta Preta on Cape Verde's Island of Sal hosted 37 top kitesurfers from 16 countries, showcasing their skills on the renowned waves. Airton Cozzolino, the reigning Kite-Surf World Champion from Italy, continued his impressive form in the men's competition. Cozzolino dominated the final, securing significant scores, including a 9.10 and an 8.53. Competing against his friend and mentor Mitu Monteiro from Cape Verde, both riders showcased their prowess on epic waves. Despite a strong effort, Monteiro couldn't match Cozzolino's high scores and settled for second place. The battle for the third podium spot was intense between Brazilians Pedro Matos and Gabriel Benetton, with Matos clinching third place with an 8.30 wave score, just 0.07 points ahead of Benetton. In the women's competition, Moona Whyte, the reigning Kite-Surf World Champion from the USA, dominated the final. Whyte secured the win with two flawless 10-point rides in optimal conditions. Her opponent in the final, Capucine Delannoy from Italy, put up a strong fight, but Whyte's perfect rides in the final set of waves secured her first place, leaving Delannoy in second. The mini-final between Charlotte Carpentier from France and Camille Losserand from Switzerland was highly competitive, with both athletes closely matched on the scoreboard. Losserand's final wave gave her a slight edge, securing third place on the podium by a fraction of a point. GKA Kite-Surf World Cup Cape Verde 2024 | Results Men 1. Airton Cozzolino (ITA) 2.
