Hi Guys!

Does anybody knows which kites have won the PKRA title in all the history? I have curiosity to know it

This year I know that Youri Zoon rode Slingshot RPM and Karolina Winkowska rode Slingshot Fuel!

But the years before?

Thanks

Well, Hadlow won 5 times....so that's flexifoil
Vari won it a few times...so that's Cabrinha
Think Shinn won it once...can't remember the kite

Andy Yates won on Fuels. Kevin Langeree won using Naish Torches. Kites pre-Hadlow would be obsolete by today's standards.

Bruna won with a Hadlow Pro. I think Gisela won on Airush Generator, Razor and Slingshot Fuel

Wasn't Mark Shinn on Naish?

I thought it was the kiters talent that won the events.
It would seem that the kiters think so too as several of them have jumped to other brands since their victories

Gee and i was thinking it was about the rider that one. Most tricks these days dont have anything to do with the kite anymore.

Seems no relationship between winning PKRA and sales of kites
