Emilio Galindo Barquín (E-21) is a Spanish freestyle windsurfer living in Cadiz. He has just won the Spanish freestyle title leaving him on fire. His homespot Sancti-Petri provided some awesome sessions for this clip with wind and totally flat water from 3.7 maxed out to 5.3 pumping.
In this episode Ben Proffitt brings us a bit of action from Robby Swift and Marcillio Browne. Plus he brings us a tutorial on doing a stalled forward.
A nice action clip of Moroccan Boujmaa Guilloul showing why he is the style master in terms of wavesailing.

It is with sad hearts we tell you that co-inventor of windsurfing passed away. The following was posted on the starboard website in his memory
“Jim Drake changed the lives of millions of people and will continue to do so.
Windsurfing has made people experience the wind, waves and water in new ways. The sport has made converts travel and even settle on the opposite side of our planet.
His spirit was always to include everyone and especially women and kids into windsurfing. Jim and his wife Sam spent years with us in Thailand developing designs and strategies to
increase the popularity of windsurfing. He was always optimistic and especially happy to challenge the status quo. His view on “one design” versus free choice of windsurfing gear
for the Olympics was well known. His designs, like the Formula 175, the worlds most winning race board ever took competitive windsurfing to a new level.Jim was an early adaptor of paddle boarding and he has helped design a number of winning designs like the K15. Some of his later designs are still being tested and his ideas on the future
of paddle board designs may soon be shared.He had so much more to give and reminded us on how precious each hour of life is.”

This morning I brought you another video from Peru which you can see here. That reminded me of another video from Pacasmayo. In this Video Kauli Sedi visits spots like Lobitos, Baterias, Pacasmayo and Sick Cliffs. This is definitely a place I want to visit!
The AWT has a stop scheduled for Pacamayo this year. I will do a travel feature in the coming weeks on this famed spot! So watch for it, in the meantime enjoy this video as Kauli rides a seemingly endless wave!
