What comes next after winning the world freestyle kiteboarding title? You certainly don't slow down if you're Youri Zoon! 

Forward is the story behind the 2012 and current number 3 freestyle kiteboarder - Youri Zoon. The champion made headlines earlier this year when he jumped ship from his long time sponsors Slingshot and joined the new world order at Best kiteboarding, along with riders like Ruben Lenten. He's also a pretty nice guy, happy to sit through interviews, always smiling and doing right by his sponsors. Mr Zoon has obviously had a camera crew following him around the globe for the past while though. They've knocked this up from all the footage, and even paid some old guy to do the voice overs. 

Add to that, some fancy sneakers and helicopter shots as Youri runs up some mountains. A few glamorous slowmo shots through the sunset and of course boots, C kites and wakestyle riding, and you've got our interest. This could seriously be the most professional video we've ever seen on the topic of kiteboarding, at least the trailer makes it seem as such... 

Check it out, and stay tuned for the whole thing. 'Forward' gets released online on the 18th April 2013 - stay tuned!
