Steph has returned with a 2nd place in the ladies at the European Championships in Dournenez where over 100 kitesurfers competed in a 4 day kite race event. The kite racing is on a completely different scale this year with more riders involved with the sport & new board/kite/fin concepts. It is hugely exciting to see what works & the competiton is so hot that one mistake or gear failure and you are out of the race. The Petit Navir Grand prix in Dournenez was the first IKA event of the year, the next is in Italy followed by the world Championships in San Fransisco.
