Can sports rise above politics? For sure. Three kiteboarders from Russia, Ukraine and Finland have teamed up to kite cross the Gulf of Finland. With a message flying high like their kites.

Russian Maxim Ivanov, Ukrainian Stanislav Kulikov and Finish Juuso Tilaeus have sailed together 279.46 kilometers (173.6 miles) between Helsinki and St. Petersburg, in challenging weather conditions.

"We don't like the relationships between our countries, which are fraternal peoples and neighbors. We hope that our project [Sports Is Above Politics] contributes to peace and mutual understanding between countries," underlined Ivanov.
