The Values
FROM CAPe VERDE TO rule THE WAVES OF THE WORLD
ATTENTION! STRAPS ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGE
Born in Sal – Cape Verde, Mitu was the pioneer of the strapless because he didn’t have enough money to afford it.
Having inspired an entire generation with a new discipline has transformed him into a star, but it is his friendliness and open spirit that have transformed him into an icon.
Today he lives between the podiums and a family life, raising two boys who will most likely follow his path.
It was 1999 and a friend of mine came with one of the first kites on the market and a theory book. Obviously I left the book and took the kite to try … my life has changed …
