A great interview with AWT director, founder, and organizer. She is a very busy lady, and doing an amazing job for windsurfing in North American. Organizing 9 events this year, drawing in amateurs and pro to events in Top windsurfing destinations in North and South America. And word spreading with quite a strong likely hood of a PWA/AWT collaborated event in Maui this year. Something I’m sure a lot of people are looking forward to and an event that could draw many big names.
Catch up with Sam in this interview as she discusses how her dream all began, and how she came to organize the AWT. Best of luck to Sam, and fingers crossed for and AWT/PWA event on Maui this year!
