You can dress mutton up as lamb but everyone can see right through this absolute fail trying to convince IOC with videos like this (they struggle for 100 views - and we know when views are fake - like GKA tried! lol) that there is a viable olympic sport in this super expensive, super niche kiteboarding discipline in Asia, a place with 5 billion people - but only a handful of riders, no national championships at all. It is an embarrassment.

That's 4 years of Formula Kite, documented.

You can stretch to 4.5 billion if you include all these countries: https://www.worldometers.info/population/asia/ but I'm sure you meant only Eastern Asia, which is 1.6bn and I'm sure 99.999% of them have even heard of the sport, let alone that it has niches.

You wanted proof that a national competition existed in Asia :wink: Results are published on the JPKA Facebook page, as are pics/videos of the comps. You can chase down details of the other Asian kite comps from there.

That's a TT racer in the foreground, and me in the background with the yellow Switchblade, hoping the wind comes up enough that I can TT and won't have to foil through all the grass in the water...

It didn't, and I did :(
