What a level of skill we saw at the BAKL Battles Guriu! 🇧🇷 The first battle set the bar high and gave us some top-notch kitesurfing moments. And if anyone really stood out, it was Leonardo Casati.

The Italian rider once again demonstrated why he's one of the best in the world. His mind-blowing tricks and unmistakable style left us all speechless. Landing those megaloops with such ease is out of this world. But what impressed us most was his incredible gesture of solidarity, which is unusual.

After taking first place, Leo decided to donate part of his prize to Can Kamenik. A gesture that touched us all! "I know Can needs it more than I do, and he's an incredible guy with a bright future," Casati commented. Hats off to such a lovely gesture; you've already won over the SUELTA LA BARRA community!

The podium was completed by Can Kamenik and Fabian Kite in second place, and Zac Adamskite and Jluis123jef in third. They all gave us an unforgettable show! The level of riders in this competition was incredible.

Leonardo didn't want to miss the opportunity to thank everyone who has supported him: his family, his team, his sponsors, and, of course, his fans. "It's only thanks to them that I can get this far," the Italian stated. Kitesurfing is undoubtedly a team sport, and unity is strength.

These types of events show us that kitesurfing is experiencing a golden age. There's an increasing number of young talents, and the competitions are becoming more and more spectacular.
