Young kiting champ flying high

HE'S spent the past few weeks practising in Tauranga Harbour - now Papamoa's Marc Jacobs is anxious to take his latest kitesurfing moves back to the world.
 
The 18-year-old professional tour rookie has had an incredible year in the sport, winning the North kiteboarding World Young Blood title in July and launching himself on to the world circuit.
 
He arrived back a month ago somewhat dazed from his whirlwind tour, which took in seven countries in three months, but anxious to put all his hard off-season work into practice.
 
"This last week, there have been pretty steady winds and I've been learning some new moves, but the forecast isn't that flash for breeze in the next little while," Jacobs said.
 
"That's why I'm probably going to Perth to train next month, because the winds are much steadier over there."
