Sobre o editor
KitesurfingOfficial
O KitesurfingOfficial é feito por gente que realmente anda de kite. Passamos anos na cena, nas praias, nos eventos e atrás da câmera, e construímos esta plataforma para dar aos riders uma casa honesta para tudo isso: spots, equipamento, atletas, vagas e notícias. Nossa equipe checa os fatos antes de publicar, linka cada matéria à fonte e escreve do jeito que rider fala. E se o vento estiver bom, a publicação pode esperar umas horas. Você sabe como é.
