With a four-title sweep at the FlySpot Polish Open of Indoor Skydiving, Singaporean teenager Kai Minejima-Lee emerged as the most successful athlete of the Oct 23-25 event in Katowice.

The 16-year-old won gold medals in all four categories that he entered in Poland - the solo speed, freestyle open, dynamic two-way and dynamic four-way - to earn that distinction in the competition which featured 232 athletes from 22 countries.

"Winning gold in every event I entered is incredibly special," said Kai, the 2025 Sportsboy of the Year.

"The competition was fierce, especially in solo speed where I faced 25 talented fliers. While I'm grateful for the individual achievements, these victories are really a team effort. I'm also fortunate to have partnered with such amazing athletes in the team events.

"This clean sweep gives us tremendous momentum as we build towards future competitions."
