If I am not wrong the Kiteboarding event will not be mixed anymore... it will have events for men and women

I think you are right, in the beginning they had this offshore racing, but it was taken out and therefore there will be two kiteboarding events

How is mixed kiteboarding even possible? It's an individual sport. Or were they planning to make women compete against men?

The original proposal was a “mixed kiteboard relay.” I never saw the planned format of the event though.

They likely planned to have a (non-related) mixed team event with no individual medals.

But is this official already?

 

Last thing I heard was that the IOC didn't cancel the offshore event completely, they send it to have an overhaul and they would revisit in a future. They asked the Sialing Federation to choose a preferred substitute in case the offshore event was cancelled, and that's where they choose the individual kiteboarding instead of the team event.

 

But if I'm not mistaken it's not official event cause the IOC can still choose the offshore event (wich is also the Sailing Federation favorite of the two)

@Quasit why being sad about it? :-)

Not a big fan of some of the changes (breaking, extreme canoeing, flatwater canoeing programme looks odd, no baseball) and I was hoping for some other changes/additions but I was told before the programme was pretty much final.

At least the speed discipline will be separate in climbing which is nice. ;)
