An international group of riders were ready to contest the Formula Kite U21 and A's Youth Foil World Championships in Torregrande on the west coast of Sardinia. The Worlds are the ultimate test for these under-21 athletes as they foil above the surface at speeds in excess of 30 knots. There are 87 riders representing 22 nations from four continents. With qualifying series races running at a target time of 12 minutes, and Medal Series races running for just 6 minutes, the action was fast and furious with little time to rest between heats.
