The WA crew head over to Cairns Australia to compete in the first Australian freestyle nationals on Green Island. The video gives a feel for the island, the conditions, and the up-and -coming freestyle scene in Australia. Unfortunately we had the strong wind on the first few days, and went windsurfing instead of filming, so we can promise the island does get windier than this.
Another great clip from Pozo, this Time from Team France Windsurf featuring Antoine Martin, Thomas Traversa and brothers Jules and Justin Denel.
The final day at the 2013 Gran Canaria Wind and Waves Festival still didn’t give conditions good enough for official PWA competition.
