Join us on an unforgettable kiteboarding journey to Guriu, a hidden gem near Jericoacoara. In this episode, Bula, Oli, Thao, and I reunite for an epic adventure in a spot beloved by BAKL competitors for training big air tricks.
As we ventured along the rugged gravel roads, passing through quaint villages and spotting local wildlife, we were immersed in the rustic charm of rural Brazil. Finally reaching Guriu, we were greeted by its authentic vibe, with locals on motorcycles and amidst roaming animals - a true cultural immersion.
The kiteboarding spot was a sight to behold: vast sand dunes, a sprawling flat water bay, and picturesque views. Watch as Oli kicks off with a warm-up, playfully teased for his short wetsuit - a must in the scorching sun.
The light wind was perfect for exploring the bay's flat water paradise, with clean, steady winds reaching 25 knots. Joined by our video analysis team, Bula, Thao, and myself, we captured some incredible footage.
Highlights include:
My execution of advanced loops like late backroll, boogie loop, and double backroll kiteloop.
Svenja Zoe Peters, a talented German rider, joining us on her 7m North Orbit, showcasing her skills even underpowered.
Oli's awe-inspiring tricks, including backroll kiteloop late backroll and kiteloop onefooters, plus two new additions to his repertoire - the Kiteloop boardoff and Boogieloop boardoff, captured beautifully from the sandbar and Oli’s POV.
End your watch with a laugh at our funny crashes and candid comments.
Our time in Guriu was phenomenal, and we're excited to return. Stay tuned for more adventures - see you in the next one, homies!
