Physical fitness also plays an important role in sports progression. During kiteboarding sessions, your body has to withstand centrifugal and gravitational forces and these forces are magnified when performing tricks or during a wipeout. To be able to handle these forces and prevent injuries, the body needs to be strong, that’s why the Duotone Academy has provided a whole range of fitness exercises and workouts.  To make sure this training program meets all the requirements to perfectly prepare the body for a kite session, Duotone has joined forces with the experienced TAG Heuer Porsche  Formula E Team, to bring their extensive training expertise into the realms of kiteboarding. Similar to kiting, motorsport drivers bodies have to withstand great forces, especially when cornering hard or during a crash. Both sports demand a lot of body and mind: hand-eye coordination, quick reaction responses as well as sharing many similarities in the muscle groups being used. Pascal Wehrlein, TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Factory Driver, and Performance Coach for Porsche Motorsport, Rich Connor, know exactly what to look out for.   Together with their expert team, the Duotone Academy have developed a training program with a series of warm- up, work out and mobility exercises, tailored exclusively for the needs of kiteboarders. As with all functions of the app the training section as well will be updated regularly in the future keeping the successful partnership with Porsche going.
