Tanguy, Eleveight Kites Ambassador
I'm Tanguy, 27 years old, and originally from the Dunkirk area. My dad and my brother had been kiting since I was 9... but it wasn't until September 2021 that I finally decided to get into it!
I started on a twintip with a Naish Torch, definitely not the ideal kite to start with! I quickly switched to Eleveight kites, starting with the RS: intuitive, reliable, and perfect for learning. Then I discovered the FS: more technical but still accessible, and much better suited for progressing than the Torch.
Today, I mainly ride with the Eleveight RS+ and Eleveight XS, focusing on old school and big air.
Where I live, there are almost no specialized kitesurf shops left. You can find the usual brands like Core or ION, but no shop carried Eleveight, even though the brand deserved to be known. So, becoming an ambassador is a chance to introduce this brand at our local spots, and to chat, advise, and share.
I mainly ride on the Opal Coast:
- Dunkirk
- Sangatte
- Wissant
Don't hesitate to come chat on the beach or on social media if you want to talk gear or test some Eleveight equipment!
