Maxime Chabloz and Bruna Kajiya delivered masterclass performances to take victory at the GKA Freestyle Kite World Cup Borkum, as the North Sea provided a dramatic backdrop for the second stop of the 2026 season.
Borkum, Germany made its debut on the GKA Kite World Tour this week, hosting the second freestyle stop of the 2026 season. Fresh off the opening event in Mexico, athletes had just days to adapt from warm Pacific swells to the raw conditions of the North Sea — a very different kind of challenge.
As the competition progressed, Chabloz showcased exceptional skills, executing high-scoring tricks that left the judges and spectators in awe. Kajiya, equally impressive, demonstrated her prowess and determination, securing her place atop the podium with her consistent performances.
This event not only highlighted the talents of the competitors but also marked an important milestone for the GKA Kite World Tour, as it continues to expand its reach and popularity in the kiteboarding community. The intense battles and breathtaking displays of athleticism have set a high standard for the upcoming events in the season.
With the second stop concluded, focus now shifts to the next event, where competitors will aim to build on their performances in Borkum.
