From Munich to the waves of the world’s oceans

"I'm Alina Kornelli , 24 years old and a passionate kitesurfer. Born and raised in Munich, the sport was practically in my blood - my father was a windsurfer and my whole family is very sporty," begins Alina. Her sporting journey started early, influenced by her family and her stays in Cape Town and Spain. At just 15 years old, Alina decided to pursue kitesurfing professionally. This decision paid off when she was able to realize her dream of participating in the Olympic Games in 2024.

The atmosphere was one of respect and positive energy, which made the road to the Games unforgettable.

The role of Allude in Alina’s life
