Katowice, Poland - 25 October 2025 Singapore’s indoor skydiving prodigy Kai Minejima-Lee has once again redefined the limits of flight and athletic excellence, achieving a perfect gold-medal sweep at the FlySpot Polish Open 2025.


The 16-year-old phenom clinched gold in all four categories he entered—Solo Speed, Freestyle Open, Dynamic 2-Way, and Dynamic 4-Way—an achievement never before accomplished in the competition’s history.


With over 232 athletes from 22 countries competing, Kai emerged as the most successful athlete of the event, reaffirming his status as one of the brightest talents in global indoor skydiving.

A Masterclass in Speed, Precision, and Artistry


Kai’s performance in Solo Speed showcased both technical precision and lightning-fast reflexes. Facing a field of 26 elite flyers, he completed flawless runs through complex routines to secure the gold. He followed this up with an electrifying display in Freestyle Open, where he performed his signature gravity-defying routines to music—earning top marks across all rounds.


The team events saw Kai’s ability to collaborate shine just as brightly. Partnering with Adrien Gallot (France) in Dynamic 2-Way, Kai captured gold after a thrilling knockout finale. In Dynamic 4-Way, Kai joined a powerhouse lineup featuring Kyra Poh (Singapore), Carlotta Sella (Italy), and Gallot once again, completing a dominant performance that sealed his fourth gold medal.

“Winning gold in every event I entered is incredibly special,” said Kai. “The competition was fierce, especially in solo speed. These victories are really a team effort, and I’m fortunate to have such amazing partners. This clean sweep gives us great momentum as we look ahead to future competitions.”

Singapore’s Rising Star and a New Benchmark for Indoor Skydiving


Kai’s triumphs at the FlySpot Polish Open build upon an extraordinary career that has already seen him crowned World Cup Champion, Asian Champion, and Singapore Sports Boy of the Year 2025.


In 2024, Kai made history as the youngest-ever World Cup Open Category Champion, winning Freestyle Open at the 5th FAI World Cup of Indoor Skydiving. He also earned the title of inaugural Asian Champion and accumulated an astonishing 17 medals that year—10 of them gold—across major international competitions, including the LuxFly Open and Windobona Madrid Open.

“Kai’s perfect sweep at the Polish Open is a testament to his dedication, skill, and the strength of Singapore’s indoor skydiving program,” said Lawrence Koh, CEO of iFly Singapore. “His success across multiple disciplines—both individually and in teams—reflects the values we champion at iFly Singapore. We’re immensely proud of him.”

Supported by Sport Singapore: A SPEX Scholar with Sky-High Ambitions


Kai’s achievements are also supported by Sport Singapore’s SPEX Scholarship, a program that provides top-tier support for elite athletes. He is only the second indoor skydiver ever to receive the award, following his teammate and mentor, Kyra Poh.


The scholarship recognizes Kai’s exceptional achievements on the international stage and his potential to further elevate Singapore’s presence in the global indoor skydiving community.
