Red Bull King of the Air


Red Bull King of the Air is an annual Kiteboarding competition. Riders are judged based upon the height of their jumps, variety of tricks, and style.
The competition began in 2000 at Ho‘okipa, a beach known for windsurfing in Maui, Hawaii. After an 8 year hiatus, the competition was relaunched in 2013 in Cape Town, South Africa, where it has been held annually since. The competition regularly features the world's best kiteboarders. In 2018, the event was attended by over 7,000 people.
