2020 holiday period special for kite surfers

It was a special year for kite surfers in the Netherlands. We started the holiday season with a lot of wind. Then there was a long dip in terms of wind. Kitefoilers were able to enjoy themselves then, because they kitefoiling already under 10 knots. At the end of the 2020 holiday period we got more wind and had to deal with summer storm Francis.

Francis brought kite surfers wind, a lot of wind ...

Not just any wind but strong wind with strong gusts of wind. Harder than expected and even predicts. Yes, that is possible too. Wind force 9 and gusts of up to 110 kilometers per hour and therefore a official summer storm. Most kite surfers wisely stayed aside. For avid and professional kite surfers it felt like a treat.
