We think @cameronwestman_ could just be Rookie Of The Year in our eyes. Here’s Cameron pipping two Red Bull King of The Air competitors to top spot on the podium in his first ever competition in the KFC Summer Series Big Air Competition at Kite Beach in Blouberg this weekend. The 17-year-old Grade 10 school kid nailed his win on a Core XR5 9m with a 21,3m jump, with Joshua Emanuel and Stuart Downey next to him on either side. Here’s what he had to say about his good start to his career as a competition rider:
👇🏼
“I caught a lucky gust and had built up a lot of speed just before hitting the kicker and managing to pop and lock a sweet jump. Well done to all the riders who competed. It was a super fun day!”

Meet the 'player'! Core's Nexus has arrived in store in Cape Town for the first time, after relentless requests from customers to bring it in.

The Nexus is built for wave and freestyle riding, after Core's R&D spliced the tech of the GTS4 with the Section 2. Wave mode makes the kite turn faster, increases power and doesn't pull you off your strapless board.
In all round mode Nexus pulls a little more, increases hangtime and turns a little slower.

Nexus is the perfect kite for beginners and those digging a relaxed riding vibe.

Linear delivery, three-strut frame, radical reaction tips, incredible handling, huge wind range.

@willowrivertonkin says: "I think it's when like-minded people are doing like-minded stuff, there's a connection, and you just enjoy it, not matter what." Come into @vanhunks_boarding and check out this flyer for your self.

FedEx finally delivered! It only took them a month! Anyway... we just unpacked 10 boxes of Core gear, including your stash @ross_dillon_player.... you must be gagging. Pity there’s no wind. We’re closed now but open again on Wednesday 2 January at 9am if you’re pumped to come get a freshly. XR5s, GTS5s... bars, pumps, spare parts... we got it all again.
Happy New Years kiters. 🎉🎊🎄
