@ydwer has landed the most cover shots on Kiteworld, with a total of 19. I'll never forget the first submission we received from the Dutchman, which immediately earned him his first cover shot of Bram Bast on issue #46, in 2010. Ydwer's work features in our final issue, all available to view now for free, link in bio. 

Ydwer has also just launched his first book, 'Unseen' - find that on another link in our bio!

Are we seeing the biggest step forward in kite design since the introduction of the bow kite in 2005? New material development is a huge advance, but is a new, more expensive breed of kite really necessary?

Over the last 18 years Cape Town has been like a second home to Kiteworld editor, Jim Gaunt, and he’s a regular visitor to the @airushkiteboarding ‘lab’ when there. In February this year he took his final trip to their base in Muizenberg to report for the last issue of the magazine. Meeting with Airush MD, @clintonfilen, Jim wanted to find out why they’ve invested so much in developing their new Ho’okipa air frame material with the Challenge Sailcloth factory

We investigate the @airushkiteboarding Ho'okipa Experience... read it all now in our final issue, all free to open on link in bio

FOLK AND LORE: Key characters, moments, locations and developments that hold a special significance in the history of kiteboarding's most notable brands, as told by those involved 

ALBY RONDINA 
CABRINHA'S ULTIMATE PHOTO WEAPON �
“@albyrondina has been in the game longer than most, yet his level of riding just doesn’t dip. He’s exceptionally dependable when a camera is pointed his way, no matter the conditions and even on short lines to bring the kite closer to the rider. Even with everything stacked against him, Alby manages to consistently take-off and perform tricks in the perfect spot to create iconic images year after year.

 �“He’s a role model for younger team riders looking to hone their skills and climb the sponsorship ladder. For someone that still charges so hard on the water, he’s managed to stay injury free and enormously relevant in a young gun industry. Maybe his secret is the Italian vegan cuisine? Whatever it is, I'm sure you’ll continue seeing this friendly, all-round performer in brand advertising images for years to come.”�

Roughly every decade or so an athlete will appear who is so talented and successful compared to their peers, that the element of competition for them almost diminishes, allowing them to utterly dominate their chosen sport. This is a reality for the freestyle kitesurfing sensation, @mikaili_sol.

Over the 20 years since Kiteworld began, we’ve enjoyed watching several riders ride to iconic status for various reasons. As we bow out with our final issue, @holly_keenan profiles the most dominant competitive kiter in today's expression side of the sport.

As well as still running their popular kite trips in Brazil and South Africa, the @freeridekitesurf team is now offering exclusive catamaran kite trips in Greece around the magical Cyclades islands. The perfect playground for a total kitesurfing adventure in which you will be mixing sailing and kitesurfing in one unique experience.

The Meltemi wind blows between 12 and 35 knots practically every day between mid-June and mid-September and Freeride have two trips that still have spaces available: 9th - 16th July & 16 - 23rd July. 

You'll be surrounded by crystal clear turquoise waters, plenty of untouched spots that are only accessible by sea, beautiful villages on each island with a great vibe and an amazing history.

There are very few people in the sport today as involved at such a high riding and business level, who can also reach back into the dusty vaults of their memory to the time they were one of the very first World Champions. In 2006 we asked @shinn_mark to start a column in which he would have free rein (more or less!) to discuss various hot topics from behind the scenes in the kitesurfing industry and bring them to the interest of every day riders. 

While he may often have pushed the boundaries of how far a deadline could actually be extended before an editor’s head imploded, we are incredibly grateful to Mark for his continued commitment to producing his Mark My Words columns. He has entertained, taught and inspired us each and every issue.

Two days before final cut off (which is historically early for Mark), Mr Shinn succeeds in being both the most consistent contributor to Kiteworld (with 98 consecutive columns), but also the last contributor to submit to the magazine. 

Read his final column send on the link in our bio:
