Covershot: Gabi ‘on fire’ !

Joy, I’m stoked 🙂   The cover of the May issue of Europe’s No.1 Kitesurf Magazine –  Kiteboarding Mag –  goes to…  KITEGABI !!

The May issue is not just ‘any’ issue, it’s the 10 year anniversary edition and thus bigger & better than any issue ever before 🙂 .

Yeah, the shot taken by one of the best photographers in the world when it comes to extreme sports & sick action: Christian Black from the UK, secured me the covershot of the upcoming issue that will hit newspaper shelves all across Europe on April 21st. Make sure u go & get yourself a copy of it !

The photo shows me boosting over a fire raft during the Prosurf Extreme Charity Kitesurf Event that’s recently been held at the Nyali International Beach Hotel in Kenya.

The upcoming July issue of the magazine, will be featuring the entire story and many more joy photos of this once-in-a-lifetime trip to Kenya and truly great event, all for a good cause. Yeah, what could be more beautiful than raising money for charity through ones greatest passion 🙂  !!  All the money went to 2 organisations: M.E.A.K. –   Medical and Educational Aid to Kenya and I.C.R.H., the International Centre for Reproductive Health.

There’s another reason for getting yourself a copy of the May issue:  On top of the joy cover-shot, there’s an 8 page-feature on the Core Slider Jam in it, the sickest Slider & Kicker event in the history of kitesurfing to date, that recently took place at Woodmans Point in Perth, Western Australia, that boasted absolutely insane action performed by the best obstacle rippers of the international pro-kite-scene, amongst them Tom Court, Andre Phillip, 5x World Champ Aaron Hadlow, and many more…  Don’t miss it !!

Have fun folks & I’ld luv 2 hear ur feedback on the cover shot  🙂
Carpe Diem!
Yours Gabi
