Polish windsurfer Maciek Ruthowski known more for his slalom sailing shows he’s no slouch in the waves either. The talking is Polish but the action is action!
Here’s the rough translation of what went down:
In early May 2013 the combined with Team Quiksilver Poland and Burn Energy Drink Poland Maciek embarked on a journey in search of wind and waves. Jack and Philip Camera man Czerniec Koritski accompanied him as they traveled more than 5000km across Europe visiting Lake Garda, the southern coast of France, wakepark in Toulouse, and finally the Atlantic coast of Europe – so in a nutshell, it was that sort of adventure.
