Young Blood

Young Blood ist ein Projekt der Actionsportmarken Duotone, ION und Fanatic. Die Vision ist es, die Leidenschaft von Kindern und Jugendlichen im Alter von 8 bis 18 Jahren für Actionsportarten wie Kitesurfen, Foil Wing, SUP und Biken zu wecken und ihnen die richtige Technik zu vermitteln, um den Sport sicher zu betreiben.

Wir wollen der nächsten Generation den Einstieg in die Welt des Actionsports erleichtern, indem wir spezielle Events organisieren und ihnen die Möglichkeit geben, von Profis zu lernen. Außerdem nutzen wir diese Plattform, um Talente zu entdecken und zu fördern. Darüber hinaus wollen wir Kindern, Jugendlichen und Eltern zeigen, welche positiven Auswirkungen Sport auf Körper und Geist haben kann, wie z.B. sich gesund zu fühlen, Selbstvertrauen zu gewinnen, mentale Stärke und Konzentration zu steigern.

Save our Playgrounds

It’s very important to us to continue to spread the message to the next generation of athletes how important it is to protect our “playgrounds” and the individual actions that can collectively make a big impact. As part of the new Young Blood project, we will incorporate various sustainability initiatives like beach clean ups and will communicate our shared goals to reduce our carbon footprint as well as limiting single use of raw materials. We invite this next generation of athletes to join us in learning how to be a friend to our environment and become the next stewards of our beloved playgrounds.

The perfect products for Kids & Youth!

A very important part of safe usage of sports equipment, is the right equipment. That’s why we’re constantly developing our youth range, offering special products like the NOW sails, which are lighter, shorter and simply easier to use with more performance for young shredders.

Young Blood Team

We take pride in supporting the most talented and passionate "young blood" of the windsurfing world, like the Kiefers (Alexia & Carlos) from Spain, Maria Behrens from Germany or Tobias Bjornaa from Denmark in our Young Blood Team. We aim to responsibly accompany the most ambitious talents on their way to becoming professional windsurfers and pursuing their dreams. For many years our team has already been a breeding ground for future champions.

DIE PERFEKTEN PRODUKTE FÜR KINDER UND JUGENDLICHE!

Ein sehr wichtiger Teil der sicheren Nutzung von Sportgeräten, ist die richtige Ausrüstung. Deshalb entwickeln wir unser Jugendsortiment ständig weiter und bieten spezielle Produkte, die leichter, kürzer und einfach einfacher zu benutzen sind und mehr Leistung für junge Shredder bieten.
