After an on, off, on again start Kiteboarding is making its debut at the 2024 Olympics in under a month!

The racing kicks off on the 4th of August in Marseille at the Olympic Sailing venue in France. Keep an eye on our social channels for updates on coverage.

With the whole fleet flying around on the fastest foiling gear with speeds of up to 50mph it is sure to be a spectacle and get kiteboarding in front of the mainstream media.

We have two GB Sailing athletes Ellie Aldridge and Connor Bainbridge lining up to compete over the four day competition and both are in with a chance of podium positions. Ellie has come through our Foiling futures programme so let’s get behind them and tell your friends to keep an eye out for coverage 4th to the 8th August.
