About

Youri Zoon came up through BMX and motocross before committing fully to kiteboarding, and it showed in his fearless, powered-up freestyle. After fighting back from serious knee injuries, he dominated the 2011 PKRA season and doubled up in 2012 for consecutive world titles. After fifteen years at the top of freestyle competition he stepped back from the tour and now focuses on coaching the next generation.
