Summer competitions 2016/2017

Spring has arrived in Cape Town! Not only have the flowers started blooming, but the warmer weather and summery winds have started to show up too. I am so glad the freezing wintery sessions are slowly ending and soon we will be able to kitesurf without our fingers turning blue!
