MITU MONTEIRO │ The man behind THE LEGEND │ Ep.1

Ep.1 – LET’S JOIN THE PARTY After a 4 years break, the legend of kitesurfing Mitu Monteiro came back to competitions in his home spot Ponta Preta (Cabo Verde).

But what are the thoughts and concerns of a former World Champion?

Let’s deep into the past, guided by his mother’s memories, to learn more about his life.

Mitu recently returned to competition at his native Ponta Preta break just ahead of his 40th birthday next month. “I returned to competition after a four-year absence this year to commemorate the 15th anniversary of my return to Cape Verde as a kitesurf world champion in 2008,” says Monteiro. “It’s impossible to put into words what this meant to my people, but I still remember the image of people waiting for me at the airport. Is it true that I’m a legend? I’m not sure. But if my success helped others, I consider myself to have won.”
