Kitesurfing Colombia was created in 2019 by Gigi, a French IKO level 2 kitesurfing instructor since 2014. After a career as an engineer in renewable energies, Gigi became an IKO kitesurfing teacher in Tarifa in 2013. He spent 4 consecutive seasons there, first as a kitesurfing teacher, then as manager of a German kitesurfing school and a hotel. In 2015 he discovered Colombia and especially Santa Veronica, which seduced him by its potential, the trade winds that blow daily in winter, its varied sailing conditions (waves, flat, downwinds, …). He will then come back there every year in winter, and will start giving kitesurfing lessons as a freelancer, until he gets a visa allowing him to stay the whole year in Colombia and to create KITESURFING COLOMBIA in 2019. Thanks to his mastery of several languages (French, Spanish, English and German), Gigi and his team are able to give lessons in several languages, making KITESURFING COLOMBIA the first international kitesurfing school in Santa Veronica.
