Kite Surfing to replace Windsurfing at 2016 Olympics
Kite Surfing to replace Windsurfing at 2016 Olympics
Kite boarding will make its Olympic debut at the 2016 games in Rio after the International Sailing Federation (ISAF) dropped Windsurfing.
The decision was made by the ISAF at a meeting in Italy on Saturday and Derbyshire added: "While an exciting prospect for a new discipline, the decision to replace windsurfing will of course be a huge blow to the windsurfing community."
