Our eye fell on a cool action from Sportzeker. Among other things, it offers kitesurfers a travel insurance that also insures equipment in the Netherlands. Sportzeker was founded by water sports enthusiasts and arose from the need to be able to offer water sports enthusiasts an insurance that allows them to go on the water without a care in the world. View the details of the kitesurf insurance in this blog.
