Daniela Moroz (USA) won her sixth consecutive Formula Kite World title at the 2022 Championship held October 11-16 in Cagliari, Italy. One hundred fifty riders from 44 countries competed in men’s and women’s divisions, with Toni Vodisek (SLO) taking the men’s title.
After qualifying races advanced the top riders to the Gold Fleet, it was then the focus to finish in the top ten to advance to the Medal Race Series. As the top qualifiers, both Moroz and Vodisek had an easier route to the title, needing to win just one more race for the crown (see format).
Moroz made it look easy as she foiled to victory in the one and only race in the women’s final. Vodisek (SLO) crashed out of his first finals race, with Max Maeder (SGP) pulling all square for race two. This time Maeder crashed and Vodisek seized his chance, winning the world title with the 16-year-old Maeder in second and Axel Mazella (FRA) moved to third after defending world champion and Theo de Ramecourt (FRA) was disqualified for starting too soon.
