Favorite Spot
For me, the best spot for freestyle kiteboarding is Taiba lagoon, in Brazil, because of the long flat water distance and the perfect wind for landing new tricks.

Another amazing spot, this time in Europe, is Drepano (Greece). I went there for the first time in 2023 and I fell in love with the steady winds and the beautiful landscapes.

Last but not least, I’ll always have a special love for my  homespot, the Mar Menor, in Murcia (Spain). The best season there is Spring and I can kite quite a lot on almost flat water.

Favorite Gear Set-Up
My freestyle guns are my 10m and 11m Vegas kites, my 140cm Team Series board and the 5th line Clickbar. I love every session with this gear.

Biggest Career Achievement
Since I started competing at the age of 12, I’ve been 4 times Junior World champion and I finished 4^th in the GKA Kite World Tour freestyle in the absolute women division. I also won a GKA event in 2022 in Saudi Arabia, and that made me the happiest girl in the world.
