The reason of the trip was to make a video that represented Saad and Legare vision of the sport, they´r commitment to one of the most difficult disciplines of kiteboarding: freestyle and the diversity of spots in the country to practice.

They traveled to San Felipe Yucatán, a lagoon connected to the sea leaving a flat spot with offshore wind. It works with thermal wind, meaning in the morning it is very quiet and it is not until the afternoon is heated that begins to blow.
Freestyle can be a very difficult discipline, you have to commit to the maneuvers to be performed and try to extend your technique in each trick.
