We're back on the Pod for WOO Worlds 2024! Sharing conversations all month from riders joining Lewis in the booth from their homespots and storm chases.
First up we have Raigo Kaminskas, a hard-charging Estonian-turned-Australian. Raigo was the top scoring rider during the opening weekend, and is now one kite richer thanks to the Kite Lottery! Enjoy the full conversation he had with Lewis Crathern about riding near Melbourne.
If you’re looking for a do-everything powerhouse of a kite, Core has you covered with the Nexus 4. As Raigo points out, learning kite loops on a faster turning kite like the Nexus is a great way to progress safely. The new Sensor 4 bar builds on Core’s focus to create the most accurate and tidy bar system on the market - now more versatile and reliable than ever before!
Want to win the next one? Every WOO Worlds session over 30 minutes counts as a lottery ticket. The next drawing will happen this week for an Eleveight XS v4… stay tuned!
