The combination of air, water, land, wind power, physical strength and balance the force of nature are the qualities that attract Kite Surfers."
Boardercross is the newest discipline and the most dangerous in the sport of kite surfing. It combines speed kiting and freestyle. A course is set consisting of a number of buoys which the competitors have to go round. On some legs there are a number of inflatable obstacles which the competitors have to jump over, on others the competitors have to perform a standard trick which could be something like a back loop (a 360 degree backward rotation.) The winner is the first to cross the finish line. It is an action packed discipline where at any one time there are a number of competitors in the air, or crashing. It is potentially very dangerous and so using reliable safety systems are enforced. It is thoroughly monitored to uphold safety.
