GABRIEL BENETTON WINS THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
FROM ROOKIE OF THE YEAR TO KITE-SURF WORLD CHAMPION
We are thrilled to celebrate Gabriel Benetton and congratulate him on claiming his first World Championship title! Within a short period, he has fought his way to the top: just last year, he was honored as the Rookie of the Year at the GKA Kitesurfing Awards 2023. Now, he has secured his first title at the GKA Kite-Surf World Championship in his home country, Brazil. He achieved this victory at the final event of the GKA Kite-Surf World Tour: the Copa Kitley GKA Kite-Surf World Cup in Ibiraquera. Thanks to his consistent results throughout the tour, Gabriel was crowned champion even before entering the final heat.
Throughout the season, Gabriel demonstrated outstanding heats and results with CORE's Wave Performance Range. At the three wave events in Sal (Cape Verde), Dakhla (Morocco) and in Ibiraquera (Brazil) he impressed everyone with his Section 4, Sensor 4 Pro and Green Room 3. In the Strapless Freestyle format in Sylt (Germany), he chose the versatile Nexus 4 and 720 III, scoring a perfect 10 for a Triple Frontroll Shove-it 3. With his immense talent, Gabriel is already actively contributing to the development of new products — attentive spectators got a glimpse of this in Ibiraquera.
After Zara Hoogenraad won the Big Air World Championship in July, Gabriel's world title is the second major success for our team this year. We are incredibly proud of both athletes, who have performed at an impressive level with their passion and our advanced material. A success that was only possible together – and a performance that inspires us.
