Redbull King of the Air 2022

The Red Bull King of the Air is an annual kiteboarding competition in Cape Town, South Africa that challenges top athletes to showcase their skills in strong winds and waves.

" It’s difficult to summarise all the emotions that unfolded yesterday. The insane level of competition and extreme conditions (50+ kts) made this highlight of the year unforgettable, and I experienced one of the best days of my life.
I had the honour of working alongside one of the most legendary photographers I know, Craig Kolesky, and the talented Ganse Paul for Red Bull. Witnessing Beto Gomez, one of the very first athletes I captured a couple of years back in Brazil when we were both just starting out, compete all the way to the semi-finals filled me with pride. So freaking proud of you, bro!
I also experienced something I never thought possible: finding peace within and tapping into my creative flow amidst the most “hectic storms” I’ve ever encountered. I seriously cannot find the words to express my gratitude. "
