At age 14, Capucine is already dominating the strapless freestyle scene. Her impressive winning streak on the 2021 GKA Tour earned her the overall Vice-World Champion title.

Originally from France, Capucine first got a taste for competing with slalom ski racing, however it was when the Delannoys moved to Preá, Brazil that Capucine’s passion turned to kiting. 

Capucine’s father taught her to kite at 7 years old and she picked it up exceptionally quickly. Inspired by her brother Camille Delannoy, while supporting him at a kitesurfing competition in Cape Verde, Capucine knew she wanted to be World Champion and began her journey to get there.
  

“I just love the freedom you have kitesurfing. The feeling when you land a new trick, it’s just amazing.” – Capucine Delannoy
