Set Teixeira 3rd overall on the WKL freestyle pro tour

It has been a fantastic year for Brazilian rider Set Teixeira, who commenced with a 3rd place podium finish in Leucate. He continued riding the rest of the year with determination, and managed to constantly achieve good results, improving on his riding with each heat. This year he achieves his best ever result, 3rd place overall for 2017.

We want to congratulate Set Teixeira on his 3rd place finish overall in the 2017 WKL! We are extremely proud of you Set and are stoked to see what you have up your sleeves for the 2018 season.

The last Freestyle rider F-One had on the Podium in the previously named “PKRA” World Tour was Etienne Lhote circa 2005! With the new addition of our WTF C kite F-One has developed a world class Freestyle team that is at the top of their game!

The spectacular spot of Duro Beach was the ideal setting this evening to crown our new World Champions! After patiently waiting for an improvement in wind conditions, the competition was finalized today, and the Champions were crowned in front of the crowds in Cumbuco.
