The Netherlands-based brand, Harlem Kitesurfing, has become the latest member to join the GKA line-up. The young company has added a starry cast to its roster of team riders, including former Red Bull King of the Air, Lorenzo Casati, and younger brother Leonardo, as a measure of its ambition. It recently drafted in the help of multiple world champion, Aaron Hadlow, to drive the brand and bring his vast experience to kite development. Star kite designer, Ralf Groesel, has also joined the Harlem team as product designer. The signing deepened Harlem’s existing partnership with Groesel’s Brainchild Production company. A big welcome to the GKA family, Harlem Kitesurfing.
