- A Big Air World Championship documentary featuring Jesse Richman, Marc Jacobs, Janek Grzegorzewski, Giel Vlugt, Nick Jacobsen, Tom Bridge, Andrea Principi and Lorenzo Casati - following the action at the @GKAKITEWORLDTOUR stop in Tarifa 2022.
Thank you to @North_Kiteboarding for believing in this project and giving us the creative freedom to tell it how we saw it. The original idea was to follow the three North riders and watch them each navigate their own unique pressures of kinghood. But, as the competition unfolded, it became clear that there was a very different story to tell. One of a changing of the guard. One of riders taking previously unseen amounts of risk. The fact that North were happy for us to feature other riders, from other brands, I think says a lot about the heart and soul of North. So yeah. If you want more of these, it is as simple as: buy north gear.
The new Orbit comes out next week. It's won two KOTAs back to back. Find the latest model here: northkb.com/products/orbit-2023

I have no idea if anyone will read this bit, but if you are, let me thank you for giving your time to watch this. Making it gave me huge amounts of joy and escapism. I plan to make many more, on a bigger scale, with more videographers, more riders and more coverage.

Jesus Christ, this is a masterpiece. You guys need to make a feature film. Outstanding.
Insane video 🤯 This came out of nowhere! 🔥 Well done
Oscar for best kitesurf movie and great choice of music!!!
Man this documentaries is trully one of the best kiteboarding video I've seen. That let us see kitesurf from a different perspective
Congrats
Best thing I have seen in a long time.
Definitely one of the best movies out there for the community
Insane! Well done!!
Incredible interviews, insights and competition clips! You are very talented and skilled and with a great heart for your mates, it seems! Big ups Giel! 🌈🥰
Awesome documentary. Great. 10 out of 10.
What a sport 🤩
We need more videos like this 🤙 only thing was missing was some footage of Janek tricks, but great job 👏
Best. Kite. Movie. Ever. Period. Holy smokes! Thank you so much!
💎💎💎Well portrayed, it teaches us to always be humble and that no one walking this planet has an easy life no matter their position, fame, wealth or what so ever.
Killer execution on this one guys! Crazy to see the young guns taking over. Kitesurfing is in an interesting place right now 👊🏻
One of the best kite video ever +1 👌
The first trick of andrea in Marc’s heat. No words…
Holy shit. The raw emotions that were captured. Excited for the future of this sport. Interesting times.
My god Collin, your best work to date by far 👍
What an epic kite movie! Collin, great work! 🤙🏾 I appreciate how much work you’ve pt in this and endless respect to all the riders… You are all incredible🤙🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾😁
This is so very good Colin. You’ve clearly cemented your place as the second best kiteboarder on UA-cam. Congratulations for all your efforts on this exceptional documentary.
who's first?
@@mrmonkeboy I’m not here to pick for you. But…….
Consistently the best quality content in the sport, excellent stuff.
Very relatable with Nick, Kevin and Jesse having a young family myself. It really puts things in perspective when you are used to just giving it without thought of consequences. It becomes very different when you have kids and a wife to take care of.
I also feel for Janek and that gruesome injury....just brutal. This is a dangerous sport that can punish you in a moment.
I'm content being old and lame now.
Really great video!
Best kite documentary i have seen ever!
Great interviews, awesome music, incredible documentary all-around.
These documentaries, this and the prince's portrait. Truly amazing videos
Awesome, just Awesome 🤙🏼
Wow! This was like, really, really good! Like really good!
I'm a windsurfer, and a rookie kitersurfer. Now doing rehab before ACL surgery. This documentary really shock me. Kitesurfing it's so big now days, this is so well made. Thanks Colin. Keep up.
Love the detail and inside information with these!!
Incredible film. Thank you guys even though it had a lot of handles in it, it was a dope one.
Thank you!
Another belter 🙌
By far one of the most powerful kiteboarding edits I have ever seen
this video is fu*ing awesome full of drama and good melancholia tunes! thanks guys, really good one to catch up with what's going on in modern kiting!!!
Absolutely outstanding production. Keep them coming, aswell as the blank kite tests.
Awesome!! So much incredible footage and well put together. Love the hug between Lorenzo and Jesse.
This is seriously good 😲👏
Great work, knowing how emergent this sport currently is, I hope this move will remain a reference in the history of kiteboarding. Thanks
Wow. such a fantastic film. Masterful storytelling and edit
this is by far the best kiteboarding film I have ever seen.... I mean, wow. This needs to turn into a netflix series or something, please... I mean wow, the world is not ready for this, kiteboarding is about to blow up with films like this
Best thing I've watched on the loo in ages.
Amazing video! Thanks 👏👏👏
Bro this show is sooooo good !! Thanks !
E. P. I. C. ☄️☄️🥰🥰🥰
I might come from a time where we still had to make our own lines and bars to fly our kites but i can only have so much respect for what these guys are pulling off these days and this video shows exactly how much effort and sacrifice goes into becoming a legendary kiteboarder.Awesome video man and thumbs up for making this.
Sooooo fucking good 👌🏻 Loving the crap out of it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Best kiteboarding video of the last few years.
Top quality! Loved it a great homeage to old and new

Great Job, amazing work to show how these guys feel and perform. Makes one proud of this sport !
Just WOW
Top notch guys. Really enjoyed this. Music score is amazing.

Wow, great documentary!! Soundtrack is sick and so as the interviews and epic tricks!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Andrea is a beast.
This is so F*cking good! An inspiration to make epic high quality content.
Keeping it real since day1.. Great job bru
This is phenomenal, thank you for creating such amazing content and giving us the inside scoop on the world of big air. Seriously feature film level! 🔥🔥🔥
That’s a really good one! Thanks for the great entertainment
19:45 coolest landing I have ever seen
Awesome piece of work and moreover very great insights ;-)
Awesome video!
If folks here are unaware or haven't seen their latest video, also check out the Sickos channel. They get up to some recent hijinks with Jesse Richman. Again, kudos to North to let Jesse hang out with some other brand riders and produce great content.
Hey Tom do a backmobe in this tiny little puddle. And he nailed it first try. This man is unstoppable, probably the best rider the world has ever seen. Insane!!!
18:00 magical
Loved it!
Hopefully you start doing these for every major comp …cold hawaii is just around the corner you know :wink:
You always said kitesurfing needs more drama, it would be our very own version of drive to survive
Amazing mate, such a good watch, loving the edits, keep em coming mate!
Damnnn what an insane video!! Well done!!🔥😍
Top notch!
Epic watch, the sport really is at a crazy point in terms of progression and performance. Amazing to see the technical and mental growth of these guys!

Very emotional
Whaou. Just incredibly well made. Well done and thanks for this moment
Absolutely fantastic video 👏💪🤙
Loved the film! Really nice work guys 👏 Was great to see the human aspect of these super humans! How many risks are involved when pushing this sport to the next level... mind blowing!
Beautiful
Ahh man the highs and lows of the things we love to do. Brilliant piece of work and love the sound track. Get well soon Janek
Great video! Make more like this!
Full hopes for Janek 🙌🏻🤞🏼
Really cool vid! Especially liked the yellow digger.
Love it⚡❤
This is such a great video I love this great view behind the scenes.
This is the video I didn’t know I needed.
Just like the blank kite test.
You guys just make the best videos.
Incredible film
Great doc, helps give context to the comps. Hope you can keep doing more content like this!
Again - super nice
What a video. Loved every second of it.
Despite being KING of the shit stirrers, you've got a real talent for doco's mate. Keep it up.
If showing the good and the bad of the changing of the old guard for the new (some gracefully letting go, and some not so much, with their entitled arrogant rich white dude wankery), is shit stirring, bring it on Colin.
Amazing!!!!!
Yesss 1000th like.. good good docu. Pushing the limits ❤️
Incredible video ! Awesome and so motivating ! Thanks for this man ! 🤙🔥
Masterpiece
very epic!
Well done boys, thanks and more of this please
Thank you for making hands down the best f-ing kite videos guys! I never comment on anything, but can’t stop myself
