Cabo Verde Winter

Cabo Verde is well know for its amazing wave sailing. A group of German freestylers, decided to chart their own path and tear up the flatwaters of Sao Vicente. Featuring Adrian Beholz, Meikel Thies, Valentin Böckler
filmed by: Jo Reitberger, Meikel Thies and Valentin Böckler.

February 2013, we are on the way for our first trip to Cabo Verde. We enjoyed 10 days on Sal, but we were happy to head further to Sao Vicente.
As we didn’t know yet what kind of a crazy hustle was expecting us. The Airplanes didn’t take our equipment, the regular boats where cancelled, because of Carneval, leaving the island seemed impossible. Fortunately we found a small container boat leaving to Sao Vicente. It was a crazy hard ride over the Atlantic. After 16h on the sea, we made it to Mindelo.
