WAVE MASTERS
Santa Cruz
Portugal
I am now here in Santa Cruz, Portugal for the KPWT wave masters. The spot is renowned for its good winds and swells.
The last few days have been with zero wind, which has tested everyones patience. However, the waves have been excellent so we have been surfing all day everyday.
Today I did something new. Tow in surfing behind a jetski which was great fun. It is an amazing sensation to glide full speed into the wave. It is defiantly something that I will be doing again sometime.
We also had around 10 knts of wind, which was not enough to run the competition, but after 4 days of no kiting all the riders went to the water, catching waves but then walking back up wind.
The conditions were not ideal for testing, but I am loving my new "Shinn" wave board. It allows you to cut back on the waves aggressively, planes early, and is super maneuverable.
The forecast is looking better over the next few days, so i hope we can run the competition
