After Cold Hawaii
Taking the opportunity after Denmark ISA Worlds we took a flight to Canary Islands. I knew wasn’t the best time of the season but there was a swell around and we didn’t think twice about it. We had a quick pit-stop first in my home island, Gran Canaria where we visited the windsurf spot Pozo Izquierdo for half a day, then we packed and left on the ferry next morning to Fuerteventura with the van full of toys.
It was two weeks of fun visiting the island with Shakira, surfing, SUPing, eating and enjoying nice weather after cold Denmark. The first day we spent nearly five hours in the water. We shared most of sessions with my long-time friends Stephane Etienne and Nicole Boronat, aka Los Lovers. This couple are very passionate about all water sports: windsurfing, surfing, SUP, foiling, fishing, you name it…they are also very passionate about big waves! They have been a positive influence for me and the ones that made me try stand-up paddle back in 2010. Since then, I’ve spent hours and hours with them in the water.
