“I’m trying to readmit the kite racing at the Olympic Games in agreement with ISAF (International Sailing Federation ) and CIO (International Olympic Committee) and to open the kiteboarding to young people. The CIO seems interested to add Kitesurf in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics Games, but for the final decision will have to wait till 2017″, says Mirco Babini.
The Kite Racing World Championship 2014 for Master and Youth in Cagliari is certainly an important step for these new targets.
