We talked with a young kitesurfer Alice.
What is your favorite spot?
It is Crotone. There is always a lot of wind. I get to train every day with good weather conditions.
When did you start kitesurfing?
I started kiting when I was fourteen, three years ago. It makes me feel free and gives me a sense of peace I couldn't find anywhere else.
What trick was especially difficult for you to perform?
The triple front-roll board-off was the most difficult trick. I worked hard to land it. In the future, I would like to learn very high kiteloops.
