VOLCAN: I was motivatged and focused on trying it – For the first time I could allmost land it Friday. Saturday I attempted 4 and No 3 almost clean. For me it’s still tricky with the 79L board – but I’ll keep going :)

During the week one afternoon with some Levante at Cabopino – but there haven’t been much wind…

Frog kick

Mittwoch, 10. Februar 2010

suddenly there was wind raising against the bad forecast. I rigged up 5.3 and could handle the shore with almost no wind!

Then the wind was stronger and I could ride some waves and check out the frog kick – first try :)

Tail grab

A day beginning with 4.2 and then 4.7. I tried out tail grabbing and it went well – let’s make it higher and planning! Unfortunately the wind was a little bit onshore and there haven’t been that good waves…

Nice forecast for Almerimar. I started to ride with 5.3 but soon the wind came and I changed to 4.2. Finally I was riding again with the NewWave 79 and it felt like we are a team now! It was really good riding – I’ve got some waves – and the board was easygoing :)

Freeride

While there was no more wind raising I rigged up 6.4 and went a little bit freeriding with the XTC 115. It was quite ok, but I felt the big sail really heavy.

riding with not that much wind for 5.3 and some waves. It was an ideal day for me because there haven’t been that much shorebrake abut still nice waves. I was surfing with the old Spice 86 and it didn’t feel that slow and straight as the last time.

asi fue: since i almost ripped my new board, I’ve got into the pleasure to ride the “old” spice 86. It was quite a hard day at club the playa but since then I really could understand why I had some trouble to start surfing with the new one.

It’s such a difference!

Since I got to ride a real radical wave board, the spice feels like a real freeride board!

(anyway for begining in wave it geared perfect!)
